Agnes Currie was born April 10, 1907 in Big Spring to Margaret and T. S. Currie. She passed away on April 19, 2004 at Mountain View Lodge, which was her home for the past ten years.
Her funeral service will be at 11:00 AM, Wednesday, April 21, 2004, at the First Presbyterian Church with the Reverend Matt Miles, officiating. Interment will follow at Mount Olive Memorial Park.
She was a devoted member of First Presbyterian Church since 1919.
She graduated from Big Spring High School in 1925, continuing her education at Lindenwood College in St. Charles, Missouri. She earned a B.A. degree in history and English, graduating in 1929.
She completed 43 years of teaching in the Big Spring School System retiring in May, 1972. Agnes helped many of her scholastic children and grandchildren, always with anonymity, to continue their education.

She was inducted into the Big Spring High School Hall of Fame in 1978.
