AGNES CATHRINE PHILLIPS TIMM
“Chicky”
Agnes was born on October 12, 1934 to her parents Agnes Gobiel Phillips and William Phillips. She was the second baby born in the New Richmond Hospital, which was new at the time. She was very proud of this. She was the oldest of three girls. She spent her life in New Richmond. She worked as a housewife, factory worker, at DoBoy, and Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College in the office for many years.and spent time with her family. She also enjoyed teaching Sunday School.
She got married in 1956 to Virgil Timm. She had five lovely children- one son and four girls. She enjoyed them very much. She has ten grandchildren and ten great grandchildren that she loved watching grow.
She loved to be outside, mowing the yard, working in her many beautiful flower gardens, raising bees, and loved to sew and quilt. Her greatest times were when she spent time with her husband, Virgil. They were inseparable. In 2022, Virgil passed away.and her life had changed completely.
She lived her life one day at a time and lived by the saying: “Take time out and smell the roses.”

Chicky, my friend, you will be missed. I’m so glad I met you and got to care for you. My sincere condolences to the family.
I spent every weekend growing up at the Timms house. Dixie was my best friend and Chick was my 2nd mom. Great memories. RIP.
Condolences to the entire family
