On April 8, 1958, Agnes was united in marriage to Arthur James “Jim” Van Overbeke at The Church of the Holy Redeemer. After the couple’s marriage they lived in Clifton Township where she first had indoor plumbing. In 1965 they moved to the family farm where she resided until her death. Agnes was a wife, mom, grandma, great-grandma, sister, and homemaker. The couple retired in 1997. Jim died on October 24, 2005.
Agnes is survived by her eleven children, Bernard, of Dubois, WY, Judy, of Sioux Falls, SD, Janice (LeRoy Sik and children, Ashlie and Andy), of Marshall, Karen (Daniel) Nucuta, of Scottsdale, AZ, Gary (Lori) of Marshall, Donna, of Marshall, Bonnie (Mike) DeNomme, of Mayer, Gerald, of Marshall, Carol (Todd) Cannon, of Mantorville, Monica, of Sioux Falls, SD and Mary (Chad) Johnson, of Midland, TX; 18 grandchildren, Monique (fiance Jimmy), Ian, Jason, Andrew, Diana, Raymond, Alaina, Spencer, Kaiden, Jordon, Stephanie (Max), Anthony, Derrick, Ashley, Nicholas, Courtney, Kathryne and Camden; one great grandchild; four siblings, Alice (Don) Schoenberger, of Thermopolis, WY, Melvin (Aloma) Coudron, Donald (Kathy) Coudron and Mary Ann (Don) Kor, all of Marshall; and many nieces, nephews and other relatives.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Jimmy; her mother, Alma; her father, Emil; and her sister, Evelyn Demuth.
Agnes’ enjoyments in life were spending time with her family, gardening, canning, working on the farm, reading, sewing, and quilting. She particularly liked the color purple and the Fern Leaf Peony flower. She gave many of her quilts to her children and grandchildren and also donated some to various charities, including Heart to Heart, Prairie Home Hospice, and St. Ann's school.
Agnes was a member of the Marshall Area Senior Center, Threadbenders Quilt Club, NFO; and she also served on the Holy Redeemer Parish council. Agnes was a faithful and active member of Holy Redeemer Catholic Church all of her life.
Blessed be the memory of Agnes Van Overbeke.
