In Loving Memory ~
Born February 14, 1932 in Hanover, Manitoba.
She passed away peacefully on April 26, 2023 with her family in her home in Grand Forks, BC.
Agatha grew up in Manitoba and Yarrow, BC, in a family of 12 children, being the 4th from the eldest. She went to public school until the end of grade 8 and then worked to help support the large family.
She went to Bible school where she met her sweetheart, Cornelius Pauls whom she married and had 5 children with in Richmond, BC.
The family moved to Grand Forks in Spring of 1972 and began farming the Pa-Van Ranch on the North Fork Rd. where they lived, worked hard and often climbed the mountains.
Agatha had the gift of hospitality and her home was always filled with guests or friends and family that came to stay and help out with the farm work.
She leaves behind her 5 children: Allan (Gwen), Dorothy (Geoff), David (Geri), Eileen (Geoff), Tim (Hannah), 22 grandchildren and 42 great grandchildren.
She will be missed by her family and the thought of meeting again in glory gives much hope and peace.
The celebration of her life will take place at Gospel Chapel on Saturday May 6, at 2:00 pm.
