I just found out today July 12th, that your Mother has passed away in April. I was thinking about her and her upcoming birthday and that I would call her soon.
I worked with her in the kitchen at Four Counties Hospital in the mid 1990s. When I started, Agneta was kind, patient and considerate of my inexperience. She was both a great friend and mentor on the job.
After I left when we moved to Calgary, we remained in touch. I had the opportunity to visit your Mom a few times, even staying overnight once. My most recent visit was in the summer of 2015.
Agnete was a warm, caring, wise, generous person. I feel very fortunate in having known her, and I offer my sincere condolences on the loss of your Mother.
I will miss her.

My sincere condolences on hearing of the passing of your sister, mom, grandmother, great grandmother, friend, and neighbor. I had the pleasure of working with Agnete at Four Counties Health Services for many years. She was a wonderful lady who brightened our days, Her laughter lifted our spirits. Her work ethic made the work load easier for all. She offered herself humbly to those who were in need. She was a special treasure from God. We didn't always see eye to eye on everything and she would say "well that's ok how you see it, I have a different view". Her honesty and integrity never waivered and she was an example for others . May God's comfort and peace be yours.

Agnete was a wonderful neighbour. I'll always remember sharing our overabundance of fresh asparagus, and she would package up a leftover pork chop and potatoes for me while my husband was on the road. We have several stories where our lives have crossed with Kjeldsen family members. She will be missed.
