Agatha (Aggie) was born on April 12, 1922 to John and Rosie (Geschwenter) Gaschler in Ellis, KS, where she met her loving husband William of 65 years.

Agatha moved to Junction City, KS in 1945 where she was an active member of the St. Xavier's Catholic Church. She still holds a place in the hearts of the students she touched as head baker at the St. Xavier's school cafeteria for over 25 years.

She was the mother of Jeanette Willett of Topeka, KS, Sharon Walker of Branson, Mo and Robert of Lenexa, KS. Also surviving are two sisters Betty Honas, Ellis, KS and Freda Drieling, Ft. Collins, CO

Agatha was the proud grandma of nine grandchildren, eleven great-grandchildren, all of who always looked forward to her goodbye "surprise packages" which always made leaving grandma's a little bit easier after a visit.

Preceding her in death are her parents, her husband William, two grandsons Todd & Ryan Walker, and three brothers and one sister.

Pallbearers will be grandsons Randy Evans, Rick Evans, Brandon Schuster, Jeff Schuster, Brett Schuster, and great grandson Gage Hall.
