  4. I first met Aggie when I purchased my cabin 20 years ago. Dropped over to introduce myself and was made to feel so welcome I kept going back. She”d put on the kettle and we would head out to the deck with a cup a tea and a smoke. Was amazed watching her talk to the birds, calling them over to get the treats she had in her hand. It seemed there was an actual conversation going on. Aggie was and still is one in a million, and it was a great privilege to have known her. For such a tiny woman, she had a very big heart. She will be sadly missed by all who knew her. Sincere condolences to her husband Cecil, her children Sherry, Wanda, Ella and Cec. and all the extended famiies. Rest in peace my friend.
