Obituary
“Goodnight see you in the morning, Mother”
From Labor:
Agnes Elizabeth Madden was born on April 6, 1941, to Sylverstein “Susie” Goudeau and Willie “Bill” Gaines in Okmulgee, OK. At this birth, twins came into the world and were named, Alice and Agnes. They were two of six children born to Ms. Goudeau.
Agnes attended Tulsa Public Schools including Dunbar Elementary, Carver Middle School and Booker T. Washington High School where she graduated with the Class of 1959.
Agnes attended Private Industry Training School after high school and pursued many formal employment opportunities in her lifetime including doing work in Home Health Care, City of Tulsa, Private Duty work, until she retired.
Agnes met and married Woodrow Rentie. To their union, she brought into this world 7 children but was a mother to many. She never met a stranger and was always willing to help those in need in whatever way she could. She opened her home to those in need and because of her love and big heart, they would often stay and just become just like one of her very own children.
Agnes was a dedicated mother first and foremost. She believed in family first and treasured her family. She had a vivacious personality and made people around her laugh and feel at ease in her presence.
Agnes gave thanks to God daily for her life, that of her children and all those whom she loved as she knew that only God could have sustained her for these 78 years.
To Reward:
On the morning of Wednesday, May 15, 2019, God called her home and gave her a new name, a new body and a new way to worship Him. Agnes was escorted into the gates by her beautiful baby girl, Tammy Lawaun Liggins. Meeting her at the gates is her twin sister Alice Brantley.

We Pray For All Whose Lives Have Been Touched By Tragedy, Whether By Accident Or A Deliberate Act. For Those Who Mourn, Immerse Them In Your Love And Lead Them Through This Darkness Into Your Arms, And Light. For Those Who Comfort, Be In Both The Words They Use And All That’S Left Unspoken; Fill Each Heart With Love. We Ask This Through Jesus Christ, Whose Own Suffering Brought Us Life, Here And For Eternity. Amen
