Agnes lived in only two houses her entire life. She and Charles lived the first few years of their married life with her parents, then moved into the house they bought and where they lived until she died.
Remembrance of Agnes from Grandson, Brett Pharo: "I can honestly say that Grandma and Grandpa Pharo taught me as much about the true meaning of love, commitment, service, and marriage as anyone I've ever known. My wife, Deb, and I used to just marvel at the tenderness those two showed each other (especially when they didn't think anyone was watching)."
