Mr. Agoney was born Sept. 7, 1927, in New York and had lived in Alaska since 1947. He worked as a self-employed commercial fisherman and trapper. Mr. Agoney lived in Nondalton from 1961 to 1989. He served in the U.S. Navy in 1944 and the U.S. Army in 1946. Mr. Agoney loved country music and was a great storyteller, his family said. He was a "very loving and giving person, always helping someone in need," and a hard worker who will be greatly missed by everyone he knew, his family also said. His family wrote: "He considered Nondalton his home and valued the Athabascan and Russian Orthodox culture of his family and the people of Nondalton, who he also considered family."
