Millar Agnew international hobbies pass away
[
] Millar Agnew { international hobbies } pass away this week another great hobbies lost . a quote from Bob Agnew ..Hi Everyone
Unfortunately I have some sad news for everyone .
My father, Millar Agnew, sadly passed away last week. He was 87 years old and had been suffering from Dementia quite seriously for some time.
It had got quite bad and most pof the time he did not recognise anyone. He did however live to see two great grandchildren born.
I mention this because it meant that he did not suffer towards the end and I think his passing was quite peaceful for him and was painless.
I have been monitoring all your posts for some time now and quite often used to take photos off the site in to show him and told him about the things you were all doing with the products that bore our name and were such a big part of his life.
On the few occasions that he was lucid and on good form he was really interested in what you were all doing and for that I thank you all for the pleaseure you gave him.
Thank you all again for the enthusiasm and interesting posts that you filed
Kindest Regards
Bob Agnew

Sorry to hear on your family's loss. Certain he took comfort in the knowledge that he brought happiness to so many people around the world with his products.

RE: Millar Agnew international hobbies pass away
Bob, our hearts and prayers go to you and your family. Dementia is a VERY tough disease for everyone involved (I have a grandmother going through exactly what it sounds your father suffered) and I believe he is in a better place. Although it does not make it any easier for those surviving members of the family.
I did not have the pleasure to meet him personally, and I would have enjoyed it, he has left a lasting impression and legacy in the rc boat hobby for MANY and most certianly to include myself.
I wish you and your family the best through this tough time.
Thank you for your contributions to the hobby (it is more than that for fathers' and sons/daughters that get to share the interest and time together). I hope the time and interest levels allow you to continue to keep that legacy going in RC Boats.
God Bless and God Speed.
