Aggie passed away peacefully at the St. Boniface Hospital in Winnipeg on Tuesday, April 1, 2008. Aggie was born November 7, 1913 in Russia. Her family immigrated to Canada in 1923. She married Jacob Koop on June 29, 1940. Their daughter Jane was born October 14, 1941. They resided in Sperling, MB where they provided trucking services for the community until retiring in the 1980’s. They moved to Winnipeg in 1990. Aggie loved to be with family and friends and helping and serving others. She volunteered at the MCC Thrift Shops and found other ways to be of service to her Lord.
