So sad! The family has my condolences. I went to the internet to see if I could contact Angie, had a question about her father, and her obit pops up! We were immediate neighbors, grew up together playing ball and looking out for Johnny. I was a Marine, like her dad, and the only fight I ever lost was to Angela! One day, probably around the fifth grade, I threw leaves on her and messed up her hair; she beat the daylights outa me!! Our dad's were both chiropractors and friends. She was a special lady and will be missed by all.

I will always have special memories of my cousin Angie and my childhood in Belleville. She would keep us mesmerized with great stories of Kookatya, a fabulous mystical land. Thank you Angie for firing our young imaginations. God has special need of your spirit and magic. Love you with fondness always.
