OBIT-KAIN, AGNES
KAIN, Agnes, 87, of Roanoke, died Wednesday, February 10, 1993. She was originally of Mount Vernon, N.Y. and left for her new life on Wednesday after a long illness. She is survived by a daughter, Danielle P. (Dannie) Kain, currently of Richmond, Va.; two sisters, Ruth Lanza, Mona Gevrekian, both of Roanoke; nieces and nephews, six of whom live in the Roanoke area; and hundreds of former dance students who have entertained Southwest Virginia audiences for three decades. She was a Vaudevilian who played the Palace in its hey day and her consuming passion in this life was the stage. She cultivated those gifts wherever she found them. This is her legacy. She now at last rests peacefully at Oakey's Roanoke Chapel, where the family will receive visitors on Friday 10 a.m. to noon, 2 to 5 p.m. and 7 to 9 p.m. A Prayer Service will be conducted at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Oakey's Roanoke Chapel.
