Aganetha was united in marriage to Henry M. Harder on June 19, 1930, in Lostwood, ND. She was active at First Mennonite Church in Mountain Lake where she taught Sunday School and was very involved with the Oakleaf Mission Society. She helped fold church bulletins for many years - even after she resided at Good Samaritan Village. Aganetha was supportive in her husband's role in church and conference work by keeping their farm near Butterfield running smoothly. She worked at the Mountain Lake Hospital for several years where she cared for mothers and their newborn babies. Aganetha enjoyed handiwork and making quilts - she began quilting at the age of 70 - and gardening, especially flowers. She will always be remembered for being the "Prayer Warrior" for her family.
