BIOGRAPHY

From Find A Grave

Agnes was for many years active in the Home Economics Clubs of Floyd County. She served on many committees for the HEC Council and was the Chairman of the annual Christmas Bazaar on many occasions. One of particular note was the 1966 show called THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF CHRISTMAS. Each exhibit featured a tableau of a different country depicting their customs of the season. It was even given special recognition by the local school system and students given extra credit for attending.

She was for many years, along with her friends Lydia Wiseman, Marie Green, Pearl Johnston, and Birdilee Fincher, head of the Kitchen Crew of the North Rome United Methodist Church. She also served as Chairman of the Commission on Worship and oversaw the Liturgical Practices of the Worship Services for many years.

She was a charter member of the Chapel Hill United Methodist Church.

Her passion was for her lawn and garden, where she spent many hours digging, mowing, clipping, and raking it in to perfect shape.

She was "Aggie" to her nieces and nephews for whom she held much affection. She was as proud of them, their achievements and successes as she was of her own son's.

She was a much loved and devoted Mother and for 39 years, a devoted and caring Wife to Carl L. Fowler, Sr. She was the daughter of William Virgil and Sarah Agnes Whisenant Penn.
