Agnes L. (Aggie) Peterson

November 22, 1946 - January 19, 2022

Agnes Louise (Aggie) Peterson, 75, of Columbus, Ohio, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on January 19, 2022. A wonderful and loving mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, loyal friend, teacher and quilter, she will be missed and cherished by so many.

Born in Cleveland, OH on November 22, 1946 to Albin S. and Margaret A. (Ploscik) Hazucha. Aggie was preceded in death by her beloved husband Dale, brother Rudolph Albin Hazucha and her parents.

Aggie is survived by her daughters, Wendy Bradshaw and Deborah (Debbie) Sutherland (Joseph); and the loves of her life, her grandchildren who she cherished: Madeline Daley and John Grayden Bradshaw, and Ava Rose Sutherland; loving sisters Rose Marie Walker and Teresa Hazucha; brother John Hazucha; and maternal aunt Angela Csontos; along with many cousins, nephews, and her niece.

She earned both a Bachelor of Arts and Master’s degree in education from Kent State University. She was a proud and loyal member of the Kent City Schools teaching staff for more than 30 years.

Aggie loved life as evident by her circle of friends, her hobbies and interests and the time she spent with family. Many knew her as the Daisy Lady, because daisies were a favorite. She appreciated the beauty and modest simplicity of daisies. Her passion was quilting, and that passion resulted in quilts being made for many people through wonderful organizations like Flying Horse Farms, Touch of Comfort, Pregnancy Distress, Alzheimer’s Association, Nationwide Children’s Hospital and The James Cancer Hospital. She and her quilting friends believed those projects gave them the opportunity to share their gift and spread love through every stitch. Aggie believed we could all give generously of our time, talent, and treasure.

Music was of great interest to Aggie. She played piano and had a beautiful alto voice. She played hand bells choir at Kent United Church of Christ, where she was an active member, and she sang in the Kent State Community Chorus. She loved to travel, most recently a Viking River Cruise down the Danube. While she loved her travels, music and her reading time, her most precious time was being with her grandchildren. When her grandchildren were in a concert, had a game, or a sports banquet, she was there. She was also known for surprise days or gifts that might show up on your pillow, field trips to the theater, and her famous snack cupboard, a favorite.

Arrangements are being handled by Schoedinger Funeral and Cremation services and the family encourages anyone to leave a memory or photo on her page at Schoedinger.com.

Flying Horse Farms held a special place in Aggie’s heart. Many of her quilts were given as gifts to children struggling with serious medical conditions. She loved making quilts for the farm with her friends at Snuggled in Hope Quilts. When a child arrives at Flying Horse Farms, they find a quilt on their bunk to welcome them. The campers take their quilt home as a memento of their time spent making new friends and having fun.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests we honor Aggie by contributing to this organization, whose mission meant so much to her: Snuggled in Hope Quilts, http://www.snuggledinhopequilts.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">www.snuggledinhopequilts.com .
