Aggie was so kind to me when I moved to St Louis in the 90s. She was a wonderful, loving person and a great mom. May she rest in peace.
A wonderful aunt. She always had a great attitude and her holiday gatherings were right out of a Norman Rockwell painting.
Aggie welcomed me into the family with open arm’s and always had a hug and kind words for me when I saw her. She managed a warm, welcoming and loving home and I remember having many family celebrations at her house packed with family and fun. She was a wonderful woman and will be missed by many.
Wonderful memories growing up just a few doors down from Aggie and her family. She always had a great smile. She was one of my parents best friends for many many years. Will be very missed.
Aggie was such a wonderful woman who I will truly miss. I am blessed to have known her. May she rest in peace. Amen.
She was absolutely my favorite aunt and I enjoyed the time I spent with her and I think we made each other laugh.
Loving thoughts and prayers to all of the Guhman family at the he loss of their mother, grandmother, aunt
Sincerely, Gen
I know Aggie was a wonderful person and lead a long amazing life, filled with great memories and an incredible loving family. John- you and your entire family is in my thoughts and prayers. I miss you, call me soon.
Aggie was a dear friend and neighbor. She was a kind, gentle soul and I will miss her positive attitude and smile. Prayers to the family.
Mrs. Guhman was a wonderful neighbor growing up on Travillian Avenue. Nothing but fond childhood memories with all the Guhman’s.
My sincere condolences to all the Guhman’s, Aggie was a lovely lady.
To Lina et al, it was so great growing up next to you guys. Aggie was always so much fun. Cocktails on our driveway, borrowing milk and bread from both of our unlocked back doors and sharing Angel. My deepest condolences on your loss. Fortunately, fond memories last a lifetime. My best to you all.
Aggie was a fun and dedicated member of P.E.O., Chapter EA. I enjoyed visiting her at Laclede Groves and listening to her reminiscences of her time as a P.E.O. Sister. My sympathy to her family.
Dear cousins, our deepest condolences on the passing of your beloved mother. Aunt Aggie was truly a blessing to all of us! From her welcoming smile to her generous laughter Aggie was genuine and authentic. She never knew a stranger and embraced everyone as family. We were so fortunate to have her, Uncle John and each of you to create wonderful fun and cherished memories. Aggie’s body may rest but her spirit soars. Love to all! Susan “Susie” O’Toole Thompson
Aggie was one of the most loving, accepting and kind persons I have ever known. She touched many lives and will be fondly remembered by all. I loved her so much!
My sorrow to the family. As a Glendale MQP-er, I remember the Uxas, Thomases, and Milfords. Mrs. Guhman was a bright vivacious light of a person, while being the cool mom who picked Elizabeth(Liz) and me up from Nerinx in a green convertible!!
Aggie and “Uncle John” were a wonderful part of my childhood. Aggie always seemed to listen and care, even when I was very young. She and my parents, Bob and Gina Ward, had such a wonderful friendship that lasted for decades!
I was blessed to have Aggie and all my parents’ friends as part of my chikdhood!
Grandma Aggie was always one of the most memorable people in my childhood and younger years. Even at a young age I loved all the talks about everything from life, science, religion, and just about anything we could find. She was one of the smartest and most loving individuals I had in my life. I will always remember her, as will the world.
My condolences to her entire family. She was Mrs. Guhman to me and our Girl Scout Troop 563. I remember meetings at her home after school at St. Elizabeth of Hungary.
She taught us to sing in rounds, Tell Me Why the Stars Do Shine.
Because God made the stars to shine
Because God made the ivy twine
Because God made the sky’s so blue
Because God made you, that’s why I love you
Even as a grade school kid, I knew she was wonderful.
May Agnes rest in peace and rise in glory!
