AGNEW IN HAWAII throughout WWII
William Albert AGNEW was in the civil service stationed at Hickam Field in Hawaii when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941.
He had been transferred there in January 1941, and his wife joined him there two months later. They remained in Hawaii throughout the war, returning to San Antonio on Oct. 31, 1946.
He died at the age of 75 Monday of a massive heart attack.
AGNEW was born in Tyrone, Pa., where he graduated from high school. For two years he attended Penn State University before leaving to find work in San Antonio in 1933.
In 1937, he went to work at old Duncan Field [now Kelly AFT]. He and Frances HINGST were married in San Antonio in December 1940.
"We were living in field housing at the mouth of Pearl Harbor," his wife remembers. "When we walked in our back yard, the Japanese flying over dived at us and strafed us. The roof of our house was hit by shrapnel and bullets."
"We were there all during the war. I got a government job so I could stay. The dependent wives and children were sent home, but we didn't have any children yet. I found a job as I wasn't going off and leave my husband."
When the couple returned to San Antonio after the war, AGNEW worked with his father-in-law in the grocery business for a year.
In 1947, he returned to civil service at Kelly AFB and remained until taking early retirement for heart problems in 1974. He worked 38 years in civil service.
"He was kind, caring and considerate of others," his son-in-law, Charles Koch of Victoria, said. "He was a precise man -- everything had to be in order. He liked modern technology like VCRs and put a computerized thermostat in his home, which he programmed. My father-in-law monitored his own blood pressure and his sugar content at home. These things interested him."
AGNEW was a member of Cross Lutheran Church in New Braunfels.
Survivors are his wife: two daughters, Sally Koch of Victoria and Nancy Peché of San Antonio; a brother George Agnew of Venice, Fla; and four grandchildren.
Services will be at 10:30 a.m. Thursday in Mount Calvary Lutheran Church with the Rev. David Loeffler and the Rev. Reich officiating. Burial in San Fernando Cemetery No. 3 will be arranged by Porter Loring Mortuary.
