Obituary of Agnes B McClaine

Agnes McClaine was born on August 2, 1945 in Emporia, Virginia.  At the young age of 3, she lost her mother in a tragic fire and was raised by her paternal grandmother, Emma Jane Kane.  Despite having only a 5th grade education, Emma Jane instilled in her granddaughter a love of education and a love of the Lord.  Agnes was raised in the church and was grounded in her faith in Christ.

After completing high school, Agnes went on to nursing school.  In 1973, she moved from Virginia to Massachusetts. Here is where she worked as a nurse in the Boston Community for over 40 years. 

Anges may have been small in stature, but she was a strong vibrant woman, with a wonderful sense of humor. She was likely to make you smile.
