My condolences to the family on Agnes’ passing. I’m sorry I did not get to say goodbye. Agnes was my mom’s roommate at the nursing home and I spent many hours talking with her and sharing our love of baseball – a true Red Sox fan right down to her cap. Goodbye Agnes, may your next road be a smooth one!
