MARTENS: It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our wife, mother, grandmother, daughter and sister, Agnes "Aggie" Martens on June 17, 2008. Aggie was born to John and Margaret Goerz and raised along with her 6 siblings in Altona, MB. While attending Winkler Bible School, she met the love of her life and future husband, David Martens. They were married on May 5, 1973 and welcomed two children Randy and Julie into their family. They enjoyed running their farm in Brandon, MB and working at H&R Block during the off season. Aggie was actively involved in volunteering with Christian Heritage School and teaching Sunday School at Richmond Park M.B. Church. She enjoyed playing the piano in her downtime, sun tanning on a warm summer day with a book in hand and capturing memories of her family and vacations in scrapbooks. She leaves to mourn and cherish her memory, husband David, son Randy and his wife Mandi and their children Brydon and Cassandra, her daughter Julie and her husband Noah and their daughter Madison, her father John Goerz and her two brothers and three sisters with their families. She was predeceased by her mother Margaret and her brother Peter. A celebration of Aggie's life was held on Monday, June 23 at Richmond Park Mennonite Brethren Church with Pastor Dave Ens officiating. Burial was at the Rosewood Memorial Gardens.
