Agnes Angela Sgro entered the world in Indianapolis, Indiana on September 21, 1949 to Dominic and Madeleine (Meo) Sgro. As the oldest daughter of Dominic and Madeleine's six children, Aggie honed her leadership skills with an early appointment as chief assistant herder, enforcer, and general overseer of shenanigans in this very proud Italian American family who called the near Southeast side of Indianapolis home. After attending first St. Catherine then St. Bernadette schools, Aggie graduated from Howe High School in 1967. In typical Aggie fashion, she didn't waste one moment to begin her life. After meeting then eventually marrying James Black they moved first to Ft. Sill, Oklahoma then to Maine where they started a family; daughter Angela Marie was born in Waterville followed by daughter Jennifer Ann who was born in Belfast. Subdued, scenic, and tranquil Belfast, Maine was something of a culture shock for Aggie who greatly missed her large and loud family in the busy city. In 1975, Aggie moved back to Indianapolis. Whether working as a waitress in Ft. Sill, Oklahoma; nurses aide in Waterville; a secretary in  Lincolnville and Belfast; a statistician, Veteran, and first female Sergeant of Supply in the Indiana National Guard; a clerk in the Army Reserve; a dispatcher for the Indiana State Police, Zionsville Police, and Marion County Sheriff's Departments; a student at University of Indianapolis; a Dispatch Supervisor at Speedway Police Department; CAD administrator for MECA; or Health and Safety Manager for Indianapolis Airport Authority, Aggie did a lot in her life. She always looked forward to the next challenge, and had a passion for facts, organization, and mastering new skills. On the rare occasion she didn't know an answer, she accepted it as a challenge and it became her purpose to understand the history of the subject and why the answer was the answer. Proud of her accomplishments, she jumped at the opportunity to use her resourcefulness to help people sort, solve, and discover. About the only two things Aggie couldn't do were swim and finish a joke.  Some may have called Aggie a workaholic, but she loved adventure and great times too.  Whether driving a drag race in Maine, or rolling meatballs at the Holy Rosary Italian Street festival, she would do just about anything for a laugh with family and friends. Playing BINGO, going to breakfast, solving puzzles and word games on her lanai is how she happily and quietly spent her last years.  Aggie's determination and willfulness helped her achieve much in life. She knew life happened ahead of her, not behind so she didn't spend much time looking back. Of the many things she did well, living the life God gave her exactly how she wanted to live it was the thing she did best.  After a fierce battle with Covid, she was greeted into heaven on January 27, 2022 by her mother and father, her beloved brothers Frank, Nicholas, Joseph, and her adoring sister, Charlene.  Aggie leaves a legacy of her daughters, Angela Garard, and Jennifer (Jake) Parrott; grandsons  Nicholas (Morgan) Bailey, Vincent Garard, and Alexander Parrott; her baby brother Michael Sgro, and nieces, nephews, and cousins too numerous to count. She'll also be especially missed by her very best friend of more than 40 years, Linda Murr of Arkansas; her Florida friends, especially Yvonne and Phil Carpenter, Kathy Starke, and all her dog friends who made a stop at her home for treats and kisses while out for their walks everyday.  As per her wishes, there was no service but a Celebration of Life will be planned for the warmer months in Indianapolis. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Aggie's name to the  Humane Society of Johnson County http://hsjc.org/donations, or St. Patrick's Church  https://www.stpatrickindy.com/donation-donacion.
