AGTE, Milton Harold passed away at home with family May 11, 2018 at the age of 91. He is preceded in death by his brother, Roy; his sisters, Ruth and Marjorie; his daughter, Janice and second wife, Maria Helen Duarte. He is survived by his sons, Ronald, Randal, Ruston; their mother, O. Elaine Eubanks Agte; six grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. Born in North Dakota, Milt moved from Montana to Tucson in 1954. He was a graduate of the University of Montana, Missoula and earned Master's degrees at both the University of Arizona and Southern Methodist University. He was a staunch Wildcat fan and supporter, taking tickets at UofA football and basketball games. Milt taught English at Tucson HS, Rincon HS and was head of the English Department at Palo Verde HS. During his education career, he also served as the president of the Tucson Education Association 1960-61. He completed his 28 year career with the Tucson Unified School District as a School Psychologist. Milt never slowed down after retirement enjoying developing small rental properties, and running several small businesses including his life-long obsession with Coca-Cola collectibles. His desire to help others was not confined to only teaching, donating over 16 gallons of blood to the Red Cross. It was his final request to be honored with the University of Arizona's Body Donor Program. Dad was an avid supporter of the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and wished that any memorial gifts be directed to St. Jude's in his name. https://www.stjude.org/donate/donate-to-st-jude.html?cID=14262&pID=24671&sc_icid=wtg-lz-donatenow
