  3. Thinking of you and praying for the family. Agnes was a wonderful neighbor- so sweet and thoughtful. She always called us to pick blueberries. We are thankful we had the privilege to know her.

  4. To all of our Wills cousins,

    We are so sorry to hear of Aunt Aggie’s passing. She was a very special person and we will fondly remember her with all of her animals, gardens, wonderful berry pies and jams. She was an inspiration to us all and we bid a heartfelt farewell to the last of the “Hurley Girls”.

    Love, Kathy Strickland and the rest of the Esterly Clan

  5. Our thoughts are with all of Aunt Aggie’s family, as we are fondly remembering our special moments with her, including her leadership of the family reunions, her abundant admiration and appreciation of nature and especially her special jars of berry jam that would find their way into our home.

  6. Dear Jeannie and Judy, and family,
    We are so sorry for the loss of your mom. Kevin & I have fond memories of seeing her with Grandma Connie at several of the summer-time reunions, and she was always so beautiful! The Hurley ladies just seemed so happy to have their families surrounding them, and it was a joy to be a part of that. You all are in our thoughts and prayers.
    Sincerely,
    Carolyn & Kevin Esterly

  7. Judy, Jeannie, Diane, Bob, Tim, and families,
    We have such fond memories of your mother. She hosted wonderful Hurley Reunions and our family was fortunate to have had the opportunity and pleasure of attending many. She appeared to be celebrating life whenever we saw her. She touched so many lives.

  8. Jeanne, Judy and family I am thinking of you at the Homegoing of your mother. Sorry I cannot see you at this time since we are still in Florida. My prayers are with you.

  9. I am so sorry for the passing of Aunt Aggie. I always looked forward to seeing her at our family reunions along with cousins Judy, Jeannie, Diane, and family. I loved how happy Grandma Connie and Aunt Aggie were when they were together. I thought they looked like twins. I always loved seeing Aunt Aggie. She was so nice, sweet, and could make you feel so good about yourself.
