Angie spent her last days expressing her gratitude for the abundant blessings she received, praised the greatness of God, and expressed avid curiosity about the adventure awaiting her in the after-life. All of her children and most of her grandchildren were able to be with her in her final days, and she very joyfully chatted with each one. She was able to experience her family at their very best as they very lovingly and with great devotion cared for her, and provided comfort and support to each other. She sweetly and graciously passed nestled in the bosom of her family.
