  Mrs. M. Agnes Robinson Schroeder, a lifelong resident of Many,
passed away Friday, July 27, in Garden Park Nursing Home in
Shreveport, after a short illness,

  Mrs. Schroeder, the former Mazy Agnes Robinson, was born January
13, 1908, the tenth of eleven children born to the late Mr. and
Mrs. Dan Robinson, who, from 1907 until their deaths, were
residents of Many, after moving from Kisatchie. She received her
education at Saint John's Catholic School in Many, and was
employed by several different businesses in Many. She married
Norbert F. Schroeder on December 26, 1942, and they had two
children, (Mr. Schroeder preceded her in death on January 27,
1975).

  She was a devout member of Saint John the Baptist Catholic
Church in Many, where she expressed her love of music, by singing
the Lord's praises with her church's choir, and by playing the
piano and organ there for many years.

  A Scripture Service was conducted by Father Kenneth Williams,
pastor of Saint John's Catholic Church, Sunday, July 29, at 7
p.m., in Warren Meadows Funeral Home Chapel. Some of the music
was beautifully presented, by some dear friends, Mrs. Gwen Cook
and family.

  Mrs. Schroeder's funeral mass was Monday, July 30, at 10:30
a.m., in Saint John the Baptist Catholic Church in Many, and
burial followed in Saint John's Cemetery, adjacent to the church.
The Funeral Mass was concelebrated by Reverend Kenneth Williams,
Reverend Monsignor Norman Buvens, a lifelong family friend and
pastor of Saint Ann's Catholic Church in Ebarb, and Reverend
Monsignor Harry O. Barker, pastor of Sacred Heart Catholic Church
in Shreveport. The music was beautifully provided by former
fellow Saint John's Choir members, and members of the choir at
Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Shreveport, where Mrs.
Schroeder's daughter is the parish secretary.

  Mrs. Schroeder is survived by two loving children; a daughter
and her husband, Agnes Ann S. and John R. Mussey of Shreveport;
and a son, Norbert Timothy (Tim) Schroeder of Many; two devoted
grandchildren, Joanna Gayle Mussey, and Jonathan Christopher
Mussey, both of Shreveport; a dear sister, Mrs. Leattie R. Davis
of Many; one brother-in-law, Bill Ashley of Many; a
sister-in-law, Willie Mae Robinson of Many; and a host of loving
nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends.

  She is preceded in death by three sisters, Mrs. Perlie R.
Springer, Mrs. Mary R. Winbery, and Mrs. Beatrice R. Ashley; and
six brothers, Will Robinson, Coda Robinson, Rolla Robinson, Simon
Robinson, Roy Robinson, and Paul Robinson; by her parents, Daniel
Andrew and Melissa Coledonia Robinson; and by her husband,
Norbert F Schroeder.

  Mrs. Schroeder's pallbearers were Stephen Robinson, Wendell
Cook, Stanley Cook, Ricky DeLatin, Johnny Mowad, Ricky Lewing,
Bob Robinson, and Jack Lafitte.

  All funeral services were under the beautiful direction of
Warren Meadows Funeral Home in Many.
