Obituary
William Edward "Bill" AGNEW
September 12, 1925 - Aurora, Ontario
April 10, 2015 - Calgary, Alberta
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of William "Bill" Edward Agnew beloved husband of Olga of Calgary, passed away on Friday, April 10, 2015 at the age of 89 years. Bill passed away peacefully at Santuari Hospice with family by his side and leaves behind his loving wife Olga (nee Heimark) of 58 years. Bill was born in Aurora, Ontario as one of five children. The family quickly moved to Barrie, Ontario where his father operated a fox farm. Then, as now, fur farming went out of popularity and the family moved back to Prince Edward Island when Bill was five - or as Bill would later say because he couldn't find work in Ontario. Bill spent the rest of his happy childhood in Cardigan, P.E.I. in a grand old house beside the Cardigan River. Bill joined the Canadian Navy when he was 18 and after basic training was stationed at Comox, BC. He served on the HMCS Prince Robert and toured throughout the South Pacific. As the war was nearing its conclusion, he was fortunate to see little action but was proud to be there to repatriate POW's imprisoned in Hong Kong. At the conclusion of the war, Bill returned to P.E.I. for a short time, working as a heavy equipment operator. His older brother Doug then called from Calgary asking him to join him in the Hatchery business. Bill worked alongside his brother at Agnew Chicks until his brother's passing in 1973 when he took over the business, and worked tirelessly until his retirement after 42 years in the hatchery business. Bill enjoyed spending countless weekends camping and fishing with his kids and grandkids at lakes throughout Alberta, in particular, the fabulous scenery and fishing at Lake Minnewanka in Banff National Park. In retirement, Bill enjoyed bowling, golf, telling jokes and his monthly poker game with "the boys". Besides his loving wife Olga, Bill is survived by daughter Carrie (Al) (granddaughters Lisa and Michelle of Calgary); son Will (Janet) (granddaughter Jennifer and grandson William of Cloverdale, BC); son Brad of Colorado; sisters Phyllis and Edith; and many beloved nieces, nephews and friends. He was predeceased by brothers Doug, Bob and sister Daisy. A Memorial Service will be held at McINNIS & HOLLOWAY (Fish Creek, 14441 Bannister Road S.E.) on Thursday, April 16, 2015 at 10:30 a.m. Forward condolences through www.mcinnisandholloway.com. If friends so desire, memorial tributes may be made directly to Calgary Health Trust – South Calgary Dialysis Centre, Suite 800, 11012 MacLeod Trail S.E., Calgary, AB T2J 6A5, Telephone: (403) 943-0615, www.thetrust.ca. The family would like to thank Doctors Pujara, Mustata and Sharma, as well the staff at Santuari Hospice and South Calgary Dialysis Centre for their most kind and considerate care. In living memory of Bill Agnew, a tree will be planted at Fish Creek Provincial Park where he enjoyed countless hours riding his bike and walking the trails.
