Aggie Florene (Rowe) Waggle

Aggie Florene (Rowe) Waggle, fondly called Teeny, Tina, or Mrs. Waggle, 78, of Searcy went to be with the Lord August 12, 2022. Teeny was born August 28, 1943 to Sidney and Ruthey Rowe in Searcy, Arkansas. Her family traveled back and forth from California to Arkansas several times before landing back in Searcy. Here she met the love of her life, Michael ‘Mike’ Waggle. They were married on May 28, 1969. The couple made Searcy their home and raised their family here as well as running Ozark Janitorial Service for over a decade. Teeny was a life long member of Holly Springs Church of Christ where she attended with her parents and siblings, and later her husband and children.

Teeny had a true heart for children and food. You could guarantee if there was a baby in the room she was sure to be waiting with her arms out. If she wasn’t helping with kids she was finding a way to feed everyone. Her many nieces and nephews brightened her home and gave her many wonderful stories to tell for years to come. Teeny worked several places, but the ones she enjoyed telling stories about the most were her time at Harding University and Mother Goose Daycare. These vocations gave her the opportunity to care for many different children that enriched her life and brought her great joy. After leaving the workforce she continued to care for her grandchildren and great grandchildren.

The greatest legacy that Teeny left was a life lived in the arms of her Lord and Savior. She made sure her children and many grandchildren were taken to church whenever they were at her home. She taught her faith by living it throughout her life and in front of all who knew her.

Teeny was preceded in death by her husband of 51 years Mike Waggle, her parents, Sidney and Ruthey Rowe, five brothers, Willard, Raymond, Earl, Walter, and Ralph, three sister, Eula Mae, Edna Pauline, and her twin Maggie Lorene ‘Polly’, one granddaughter, Rentha Hart, six sisters-in-law, Grace Elaine, Wilma Jean, Monta Jo, Nancy, Clara, and Sharon, two brothers-in-law James and Selba, and 4 nephews Jimmy, Kenneth, Lynn, and Billy.

Left to cherish her memories are her 2 children, Melinda Hart (Thomas) and Tommy Waggle (Edna), mother-in-law Violet Mae Waggle, 2 brothers Willie and Harold (Janelle), 2 sisters-in-law Ann Ferren (Rick) and Phyllis Rowe, 7 grandchildren (Christina Marie, Mitchell Thomas, Mitchell Wayne (Nicole), Christina Michelle (Davin), Erin (Heather), Krissy (Stephen), and Nick), 15 great grandchildren (Thalia, Alexsia, Dominique, Izabela, Hunter, Emiliano, Antonio, Mahli, Haylee, Hayden, Connor, Evan, Nathan, Ryan, and Riley), 2 great-great grandchildren (Elijah and Lilliana), and too many nieces and nephews to count.
