Obituary

Agnes 'Aggie' Uhrig passed away peacefully on September 1, 2021, at Monument Health in Deadwood SD.

Aggie was born on November 5, 1931, the 5th of 7 children born to Alfred and Anna Adsem in Haynes, ND. Aggie married Elton 'Al' Uhrig on June 25, 1949 in Hettinger, ND. The family moved to Morristown SD and ran a ranch for Jim Lemmon in Grant County. In 1959, they moved to Lead, SD where they raised their six kids.

Aggie enjoyed her bingo, camping, and fishing. She was an active member of the VFW Post 5969 Auxiliary, volunteering her time, cooking, and personality for many years.

Family was her biggest joy.  Everyone will remember her cooking, with homemade pickles and potato salad a given.  Several games of cards would follow dinners. Grandma may have glanced at your hand, but she was just helping you play.  She liked her red beer and was known to tell a good story.  Her sense of humor & love will be greatly missed.

Aggie is survived by her sons, Bruce (Kathy) Uhrig of Rapid City, SD, Greg (Ramona) Uhrig of Wheatland WY, Doug (Shano) Uhrig of Rock Springs, WY; daughters, Linda (Donald) Quenzer of Central City, SD and Laura Uhrig of Deadwood, SD; grandchildren, Bruce (Deb) Uhrig II, Angela (Kevin) Vaughn, Ryan Uhrig, Logan (Jill) Uhrig, Tanya (Coy) Horton, Denise Uhrig (Doug Laudenslager), Michael Uhrig, Christopher (Jennifer) Uhrig, Nicholas Uhrig (Ashley Alden), Nathan (Jenni) Uhrig, Niki Uhrig, Lucas (Andrea) Uhrig, Blake (Chelsey) Uhrig, Lynn Uhrig II, Jacob Quenzer, Jessica Quenzer, Tanya (Stanley) Pzinski, Zach (Melinda) Barrett, Karmen Barrett, and 34 great-grandchildren; siblings, Duane Adsem, Larry (Marilyn) Adsem and sister-in-law Lois Adsem.

Aggie was preceded in death by her husband, Al; her parents; son, Lynn Uhrig; siblings, Arnold Adsem, Lorraine Merwin, Norma Hedstrom, and Leo 'Corky' Adsem.
