Agnes Catherine Kever

 

Agnes Catherine (Broker) Kever, age 74 of Frankenstein, passed away Monday, June 15, 2020, at SSM Health St. Mary’s Hospital in Jefferson City.

Agnes was born January 13, 1946, in Frankenstein, a daughter to the late John P. and Gertrude M. (Kremer) Broker.

Agnes attended St. Mary School in Frankenstein and was a 1964 graduate of Fatima High School in Westphalia.

On April 24, 1965, she was united in marriage to Leonard R. Kever at Our Lady Help of Christians Catholic Church in Frankenstein.  He survives of their home.  They celebrated their 55th wedding anniversary in April. 

After graduation, Agnes worked for the State of Missouri until her children were born.  She was able to stay at home with her children for several years while babysitting local area children and enjoyed being a homemaker.  In 1986, Agnes went to work at Mid America Bank in Linn where she stayed for 26 years until her retirement in 2012. 

Agnes was an active member of Our Lady Help of Christians Catholic Church, St. Ann’s Sodality, and the Ladies Quilting Circle.  Agnes was a wonderful and loving mother, so dedicated to her family.  She loved helping other people, was a thoughtful caregiver and lived by her strong, Christian faith which included saying her daily prayers. 

Agnes loved gardening and was an amazing cook.  She made the very best pies.  She loved embroidering, crocheting, making crafts, sewing, and was an avid quilter, even until her final days.  Agnes enjoyed walking daily and going to the farm with her husband to check the cows or help with any work that needed to be done.  She especially loved spending time with her grandchildren.

In addition to her spouse of 55 years, Agnes is survived by: two sons, Douglas Kever and Russell Kever, both of Frankenstein; one daughter, Joan (Allen) Doerhoff of Henley; three beloved grandchildren, Austin, Madelyn, and Henry Doerhoff; one brother, Elmer (Gerry) Broker of Frankenstein; two sisters, Mary Alice (William) Stokes of Frankenstein and Cathy (Virgil) Borgmeyer of Meta; as well as numerous dear nieces, nephews, family and friends.

In addition to her parents, Agnes was preceded in death by a sister, Betty Trippensee; three brothers-in-law, Ronald Trippensee, James Kever, and Linus Kever; a sister-in-law, Wilma Kever and her mother-in-law and father-in-law, Legora and Werner Kever.
