Agnes Hunt, age 91 of Overland Park Kansas passed away on November 19, 2016. Agnes who was best known as Aggie was born on May 14, 1925 in Manhattan Kansas to Harvey and Lydia Dane. Aggie was born on a farm outside of Manhattan where she was born and raised. This is where Aggie grew her love of being outdoors, farming and the country life. After finishing high school Aggie ventured her way to Kansas City to start her career in the grocery industry. While in the Kansas City area Aggie was married and had a son Jeff. Aggie was an avid member and chapter director of Motor Maids of America, of which she was a lifetime member. Aggie and the wonderful friends she met in the motorcycle world, ventured cross country many times throughout the 50s and 60s. While raising Jeff, Aggie was a volunteer for the Boy Scouts of America and a den leader. It was hard to keep Aggie indoors as she loved to garden and visit the farm. She was a long time member of the Santa Fe Garden Club. After retirement Aggie traveled the world with friends and met many more life long friends while on her travels. Although she was a world traveler, she never lost her love of the country life as attested to by her love of collecting anything related to pigs.

Aggie is survived by her son Jeff (wife Molly), niece Marsha, nephew Michael, and a special niece Priscilla, in addition to many beloved great and great-great nieces and nephews.
