Three other children were born in Alberta - Frozina (Rose) in 1901, Katherina (Katie) in 1903, and Nicolay (Nick) in 1905 - but Nick died as a toddler in 1907. Agafia was widowed in 1913, and she continued farming the land in the Edwand area with the help of her sons - Alex and Gregory. When Gregory married in 1920, she continued to live with him and his new wife for a few years. She served the Edwand community as a much-needed midwife. In her spare time, she worked with cloth, weaving tapestries, belts, traditional skirts, and rugs on her homemade loom, and embroidering scores of traditional blouses, as long as her eyesight permitted. Her later years were spent in the home of youngest daughter, Katherina and husband John Makowichuk. Agafia had a compassionate nature - The legacy she left her family was one of showing respect to the old people, the poor people, and the sick and disabled people.
