We were really sad to hear our Auntie Agnes had passed away.
Whenever she was over visiting Scotland she was always full of stories - some of which had us in tears laughing.

My sincere condolences to the family of Agnes and may she rest in peace🙏I knew Agnes(Scottie as we called her at Runsen House) from when I lived there and we became friends and she loved my dog Max. I stopped up to her apartment quite a few times since I moved and brought Max to see her. I will miss her so much because she was a funny, wonderful lady. God Bless your soul Scottie🙏❤️❤️❤️
