Angelica Maurer Obituary

Wreck kills teen, injures boyfriend

Senior was on her way to buy Christmas presents


KYTJA WEIR
Staff Writer

Angelica Maurer was looking forward to buying Christmas presents with the money she'd earned this fall in her first job, working at a pizza shop after school.

But on her way to finish off her shopping list Saturday afternoon, the 17-year-old died in a wreck in northern Catawba County.

Her boyfriend, Andrew Henson, who was driving the car, was injured. He remained in critical condition at Carolinas Medical Center late Sunday night, according to a hospital spokeswoman.

The two had been dating about six months, said Angie's sister Leah Maurer. Andrew, or Drew, 16, had just gotten his license.

"She loved him and I know he loved her," said Leah Maurer, 19.

Family members describe Angelica, known as Angie, as a caring person who loved to smile, serenade her family with country songs, visit with her many friends and listen to others.

The Maiden High senior from Newton participated in ROTC all four years of high school and was in the Beta Club.

She had just won a scholarship and admission to Mars Hill College in Western North Carolina, her sister said. She wanted to become a kindergarten teacher.

Friends and family were the most important things to her. And her boyfriend, whom she called Drewby, was becoming more and more important to her. She'd invited him to Thanksgiving, her sister said, and wouldn't let the family begin until he arrived.

Around 4:15 p.m. Saturday, Angie and Drew crashed on Swinging Bridge Road in northern Catawba County, said N.C. Highway Patrol telecommunicator T. Perkins.

The vehicle had veered off the right side of the road, Perkins said, then overcorrected to the left.

The vehicle flipped and landed upside down in a creek. Angie was thrown from the vehicle, Perkins said.

It's not clear whether they were wearing seat belts, Perkins said. There's no indication that alcohol was involved, authorities said.

Angie leaves behind her parents, April and Chuck Maurer, and two sisters, Leah and Charley, 10.

"We miss her so much. It's only been a day," Leah Maurer said. "I can only imagine how it's going to be for the rest of our lives."

Funeral arrangements are incomplete, but the family already plans to finish the Christmas shopping list that the teen left inside a journal.

The presents she'd already purchased lie untouched, still waiting to be wrapped.

My very first friend I met when I moved back to NC. I want you to know I appreciate you taking the time to talk to me. I cant believe its been so long. I wonder what you think of your graduating class as you look down on us. I wonder if you shake your head or if you laugh at us. 10 years! wow its crazy how time has flown but it only seems like yesterday. I wonder what wise words of wisdom you would share with us? I know you are at peace. Just know you will never be forgotten. Great people are never forgotten!

This may be a little later then most, considering how close we are. But, I miss you, we miss you and when I say I miss you.. we're still dying inside. Oh how I wish that things would've ended up different. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that we need you. You touched so many hearts with your kindness and love and your unwilling to ever just never give up. Thank you Angie for your example of an extraordinary life. Sorry that it had to end up this way. But I was thinking the oher day about the last conversation I had with you. You were upset at me for getting kick out of school. I'm sorry. I wish I could've been as prefect as you. Goodnight Angie. (I LOVE YOU MORE THEN YOU'LL EVER KNOW, along with the rest of the world).

After 20 months and 2 days I have reached enough strength to sign this. Angie.. your smile still lingers in my head, your voice still echo's in my ears. How I miss you so much. There isn't a single day that passes that you aren't with me. You were such a wonderful person, and I know God had and now has a very special place for you in Heaven. Although I miss you down here I know what you have now, you wouldn't trade for anything. I love you Angie.. my Snacklepop till the day I die.

Hey Angie,

I miss you so much, Angie. Sometimes I still don't believe that this has happened to you, no matter how many times I visit you. Everytime I see a butterfly outside or see something about the store I think of you. It has been a little over a year now and the pain still want go away. I wish I could have a few minutes more with you to tell you how much you meant to me. I am a captain now in ROTC and I joined chorus again. I know that was something you always wanted me to do. Everyday I see your picture as I walk into the ROTC room and I miss you so much. I am a flight commander this year for AS-2 and I tried to take your advice. I wish you were here though to talk to, it would be so much easier. That was one of the tings I liked about you the most is that you always gave me a shoulder to cry on a someone to talk to. Your mom raised a wonderful daughter and I am honored to have gotten to know you for the short amount of time that I did. I MISS YOU! Love, Jenn

Its been almost a year and we want to thank all of those who have stood by us and loved us because they loved Angie, and the strangers who have reached out to us, I can not say its gotten better but I can say we survived it because of you all and her little sister and we can not thank you enough, I dont know what the next years will bring if the pain will get more barable. But know that your acts of kindess and compassion have made a differance. Angie will always be our child it does not matter if she is here with us or in heaven with God she is still ours. We still include her in everything this family is not complete without her presense. Over this holiday season please please remember to cherish those you love like there is no tomorrow because you never know there might not be.



With Love and Warm thoughts for you all,

The Maurers (Chuck April Leah Charley and espcially Angie)

What Angie meant to me there are no words that can say, but I will do my best to say. She was and will always be my little sister even though we had our falling outs but we always made up. For 14 years we grew up together she might have been the youngest but she ran around with us all on the block. I remember when Leah, Angie and myself would make tapes of us singing just having a good time or when we would spend just about every night in the summer at each others houses. But now all I have are memories and you know I think those are better than having the real thing and I know that Angie will not what us to mourn but be happy. Becuase now Angie can be with us all and watch over us and make sure we are safe. I love you Angie and miss you so much but I know you are watching us and smiling.

I knew Angie pretty well and she was a great friend. She was always there for sumone when they needed her. She was never mean to people and she is just so great and i sit her and wonder why god wanted her today. There was so many things she wanted to do with her life. I just wish i was here for her all the time. WHy was it her turn.. god should have not taken her from everyone that loved her. Well i wish she knew that i loved her like a sister cause she was there for me at times. I wish she would be able to see all the people that really care for her. She is a very nice and pretty young lady. Angie remember we all love u more than u would ever know. Love ya

Angie,

I miss you so much. It has not hit me get that you are gone. I feel like I will walk in the next day and see your smiling face. I miss your laughs and your smiles. I am very thankful that I got to know you. You helped me through a lot of tough times in my life. You made ROTC even better. I remember when we were in the library 4th period and Brandy used to scare you with those backwards songs. You are the nicest person anyone could ever meet. You will always be in our hearts. We love you, Angelica Lynn Maurer.

Wow...okay...I guess it's time for me to write my post to you. Angie, you were the best person I've ever met in my entire life. You changed me in ways that I will alwyas be thankful for. I dont know where I would be if you hadn't been there for me. You were my inspiration on the cloudy days when the world was going to hell...You were my light when the world seemed dark...And most importantly, you were my angel, making the world seem so wonderful...I cant believe its been a month...Wow...Reality sucks sometimes...I dont regret a single minute we spent together...Because that was us...The original partners in crime...lol...We made such an awesome team and now that your gone, I feel as though I'm in 87677897897809 pieces. It helps having your mom and dad tho..They loved you so much, and you always knew that...And I look at Charley and Leah and realize how much like you they look..But they could never be you, as great of people as they are...I dont think it'd ever be possible for any of us to forget you..Especially me in this case...I have so many wonderful memories of you that I dont even kno how to sort out...Maybe I'm afraid...Or maybe I think that if I dont think about it then it wont be real...We were always so good at escaping reality together...You did a great job tho, not only in life, and everyday activities, but in bringing us all together...I love you Angelica Lynn Maurer...You will ALWAYS be my bestest friend...No matter what..:-) K-n-A will live on...

There are so many times that when I turn the corner at school, I still expect to see her standing at a door, or hearing her laugh. Then I have to remind myself of that day. But I think I'm done brooding. She wouldn't want that. She always liked my smile....Her favorite word for me was goober...he he......*deep breath*

THEY WERE ALL CHILDHOOD MEMORIES THOUGH......I REMEMBER PLAYING KICK BALL IN THEIR FRONT YARD AND SWIMMING AT MY HOUSE ON HOTT SUMMER DAYS....AND WHEN WE WOULD SWING ON MY HAMOCK EATING ICE CREAM. THEN I MOVED AND LOST CONTACT. COUPLE YEARS LATER 3 DAYS BRFORE HER DEATH I CAUGHT HER PULLING OUT OF HER DRIVE~WAY LEAVING TO GO TO WORK. THAT WAS THE LAST TIME I SAW HER. ITS CRAZY HOW LIFE WORKS OUT BUT GOD HAS HIS REASONS. KNOW GOD IS WITH YALL ON THIS LONG JOURNEY. NEVER FORGET THE GOOD TIMES AND THE SMILE SHE PUT ON EVERYONES FACE. I KNOW ITS HARD NOW BUT ONLY TIME CAN HEAL YOUR PAIN NOW. I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST OF LUCK.

I am so saddened about the news of Angie's death. Please accept our deepest sympathy. There is no greater pain than a parent losing a child I have heard. If we could relieve you of some of your pain, we would be happy to help carry the load. Angie is with the angels now. She is in good hands!

I did not know Angie but I happened to find her Xanga site and then I realized what happened to her. I am so very sorry to hear the sad news and please know Angie and family are in my thoughts and prayers. I can share your grief because I lost my 49 year old father to a brain aneurysm in September. Please email me if you would like to talk.

It's hard to know what to say when someone loses their child. I first met Angie when Leah and Brooke played volleyball together, back when Charley was just a tiny little thing noshing on candy in the bleachers. I'll always remember Angie as the Little Mama who followed around after her little sister, taking care of her. She was such a sweet, sincere, loving sort of person. I've thought of her countless times every day since she left this world. April, Chuck, Leah, Charley...God bless you in this hard time and the hard days to come as you learn to accept this world minus Angie. Know that she's greatly missed by others as well, and that we're all thinking of you.

Even though I never met Angie, I know she will be missed and I couldn't begin to imagine the pain felt by the family. Remember she is in a better place, better than any of us here on Earth can imagine. I love you Leah and if you see this I want you to always remember that I'm here for you whenever you need me. I'm incredibly sorry for your loss and I can only hope that you're pain will gradually become lighter with the comfort that she is with the Lord.

To the Maurer Family-

You do not know me and I do not know you. But I can share the pain you feel now, 32 days ago my 16 year old brother died in a car accident. The feeling you have right now can not be described. But I want you to know that eventually the pain will fade a little, and someday hopefully soon you can laugh and remember the wonderful memories you had with your beautiful daughter, and sister. Please feel free to write me an email if you need to talk... I still feel your pain.. God Bless You All.

Maurer Family and friends,

I am so sorry to hear about you loss. I did not know Angie but I get on Legacy pretty much everyday to read my bestfriends (Brian trammell)guestbook. We dated for a year and a half and we were best friends after that and it has been so hard for me I can only imagine what it is like to lose a child. I talk to brian's mom all the time and it is so hard for her to go through. I will keep you in my prayers. TO the friends of Angie continue to be there for her mom, dad and sisters it will help them more than you know. I get told all the time how much it means to Brians mom for his friends to be around. May God be with you and help you through this hard time.

December 20, 2004

I didnt know Angelica but read her notice and my heart cries for your friends and family. Words can not comfort you alone. Stay strong, hold eac hother tight and know how much meaning she had in her young life and look forward to the day you will be together in heaven.

April,



My sincere condolences.



I've only known you for a

short period of time and I'm

so glad I met you.



You are truly a wonderful

person and I'm positive

your daughter was an image

of you.



I know I can't say much at

this time to make the hurt

go away, but I'm sure your

daughter would have told you

to stay strong for your family.



Pull together and remember

all the joy Angelica brought

to this world.



God bless you and your family.

There are no words that I can muster to express our deep saddness at your families loss. I can only guess at the pain of her mother, having seen the pain that can only come from the death of a child in a mothers face (my brother died at 1 yr old).



Our hearts are breaking right now, both mine and my wifes. We pray that time will make things better for you all.

All our love and strength are yours.

I want to thank you for bringing me and your sister closer. It's the best gift ever. I promise I will take care of her for you.I love you girl. I want you to know that Leah was proud to have you as her sister. We didn't get to talk much,because we didn't have any classes together, but Leah was always talking about you. I can remember her telling me about ya'll getting memberships to the ymca together. She was so proud of you because you had ran a whole mile with her, and you had keep up with her the whole time. She loves you very much. Angie you have changed my life. I will always live each days to its fullest now. I now know that life is to short to have enemys. To anyone that I ever hurt i'm sorry and I hope one day that you can forgive me. I want to live my life like you did Angie. You were an angel on earth and now in heaven.I love you!

Angie was loved by so many people and has changed so many lives. You guys and Angie will be in my preyers. I love you!

Sitting here now thinking about these few days that have past, i still do not know what to think. Angie was one person that i was in high school with that always genuinely cared about me, and i her. We were friends, but i wish i was a better friend to her. After i moved back to North Carolina, she came by one of my jobs with other AFJROTC cadets. We got to talking and she told me how much she loved the drill and rifle team practices that we shared. Angelica, words cannot express how much it hurts to know you are not with us anymore.

And to the Maurers, i miss you all very much. I honestly do know how hard this is to bear (Heather Wallace), and you will always be in my thoughts and prayers becuase i care about you all very much. Angie was a great woman who touched EVERYONE she met, even if it was just for a few moments. Angie had the power to make anyone's day better and she gave people like me the strength to continue through a day that was not going our way. With all my love and prayers, and may God and Angie watch down on us always.

Angie, we weren't as close as say one of you senior peers..but i knew you pretty well..i know there has been countless times that i told my mom stuff that we talked about right after lunch in your AVID class..you are truly someone who will be remembered for only good things..I saw this little thing on the internet and it had dates of someone's birth and death and it said that the dates aren't the most important part, but the time in between..and Angie everyone knows you made the best out of your time in between...

I pray a prayer of comfort for your family because that has got to be tough...but knowing that you are in a better place is enough to smile during a time of mourning... Angelica Maurer you will forever be in our hearts...

I'm not going to say I knew her, and I'm not going to tell you that I know what everyone is going through, and I'm not going to tell you that someone close to me has passed away too. But....I am going to say...



That she isn't gone. She's just some where else. Some where....where she will be happy and loved just the same. She's in heaven, and watching all of us. She wont be forgotton...but remembered. Think of her, because she will be thinking of you. Just remember, she isn't gone, just some where else at the moment.



You will see her some day. We all will. You know she wouldn't want you sitting around crying. From what I know, she's just not that type. So, smile for the memories. She would want you to.

Wow...I have known Angie since we were like 8 or 9. We have been friends fo so long....I'm still in shock over all of this. She was such a wonderful person who would put us b/4 herself always...and if she saw a frown on sum1s face....she would do anything to make us smile again. I remember girlscouts with her...and playing volleyball. We were always on the same team. I remember all teh girlscout sleepovers and the sleepovers I would have for my birthday. She came to all of them. I still have pictures from my sleepovers...that I will cherish forever. <3 I looved angie like a lil' sister. But she will always be with us...she will always be in our hearts so we will never be alone. Shes gonna take care of us <3 Shes now safe in the lords arms...I miss you Angie soooo much and u won't ever be forgotten...ever....I <3 u!

I know that I haven't known Angie as long as some people but it didn't take long to love her. She became one of my best friends. She was always there to give the best advice when I needed it. Wether it was comforting me or telling me to stop crying and get over it. Which helped alot. I'm going to miss her so much. We are all going to. I love you Angie. And to her family, She loved yall so much. I'm here for you if yall need anything.

I know the pain her family is going through. My manager at work lost her 20 year old daughter last month to Hodkins lymphoma. My manager took a month of from work to grieve. She had said she will miss her daughter but, will always love her daughter. This year my manager and her family will not be celebrating Christmas because it would be to painful. Instead she will only be having Christmas for her grandkids. The only people will be getting presents are her 3 grandkids. She's know's her daughter is in Heaven standing next to her grandma.

I know from personal experience how hard this loss will be. It will seem to get harder and harder for the next several months and only then will it begin to get a little better. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with Angelica and her family, but also with Drew and his family. God Bless you all.

To the family of Angelica: My heart and prayers go to you and your family. I lost my son Brian, my only child, on June 15, 2002 in a hit and run accident. He would have been 23 on Dec 22nd. They have never found the people who hit him. I cry for my son everyday but I know he will be watching out for me everyday. I am learning to live thru his strength and the beautiful memories I hold so dear to my heart. Angelica is at peace now and will forever be by your side. My thoughts and prayers will be with you.

And I lost touch with the ones that went to madin. But I will miss her she was a good person. I will pray for the family and Angie.

Brandy Watkins

Angie I still can't believe that you are gone. I'm glad that we got to know each other and that you helped me on a lot of things this year. You were truly a wonderful friend and I miss you so much. I will never forget all the fun we had over the past years that we were friends. I will never forget your smile or you asking me how things are going. How you sang, how you couldn't wait to get out of Maiden, the chats and laughing at stupid stuff. And even backwards songs that scared us in the library this semester.

I love you *chick*, forever.

December 14, 2004

The students and their parents of Bunker Hill High School mourn the loss of Angie, a friend to many. Please accept our condolences and prayer during this difficult time. We ask that everyone please continue to keep Andrew in your prayers as he fights to survive.

Angie Maurer...It hasn't hit me yet, that you are no longer here with us. I guess because, though I'm not at Maiden High anymore, I'm so use to seeing you around. It's hard to imagine that I won't run into you or that I will no longer see that Smiling face of yours' enter Winn-Dixie. It was just the other day when I was looking at your xanga page, reminiscing of our times in chorus and ROTC chorus. I don't recall a single time when you were ever mad or angry at anyone. I can only remember you smiling at everyone when you passed them. I miss your sweet voice that developed such good music. We all will miss you dearly and I know you're watching over us Angie.

To Angelica's family, we can only imagine what you're going through, but know that I am here and I will keep you in my prayers. Take care.

God now has the most generous and prettiest angel with Him.

Hi Angie! How are you? This is your SQ/CC of 2003. I'm really missing you like crazy and just like everyone that loves you, I'm wishing that it's not true and that when I return back from college, I'll see you, like I always do. I'm not going to believe it, that you're gone and I'm not going to accept it, not until the day we meet again. You will always be my "ANGEL" ontop of my Christmas tree for the rest of my life. Angelica, I knew there was a reason why your parents named you that, because you are an ANGEL sent from above and God now has the most perfect, craved angel in His hand now. Please watch over us as you had always had and keep that beautiful smile up for me and everyone that's missing you like crazy. I LOVE YOU, MISS ANGELICA MAURER!!!!

I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers go out to Angie's family and friends. I attended Maiden High School and got to know Angie when she was in the MHS Chorus and when she tried out for the Colorguard. She was a truly a wonderful person and will be missed deeply. Her smile was enough to light up anyone's day. Please keep her and her family in your prayers.

When I heard the news about Angie, my heart began to hurt. I thought back to 4th grade at Startown where we became close friends. She was there for me so many times, and we had a lot of fun together. Even though I moved from Maiden and lost touch with most of my old friends, I remained close to Angie. I'm only sorry that we didn't talk more, but I will always treasure the time that we had together. To her family, I am truly sorry because I cry as I write this, and I can't imagine how you are coping. But I hope that you are all as strong as Angie always was. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

I Love you Angie.

Angie... I've known her for who knows how long. I talked to her before she left for the mall with Droo... It's hard to believe that when I come visit we won't be able to go out like we had planned that day. Angie was one of the best people I have ever met and will ever get the chance to know. She always had a smile on her face, and made you have one as well. I will miss you forever Angie and will see you one day.



*To everyone, Angie would never let anyone she knew walk around without a smile on their face, whenever you think of Angie... smile because that's all she wanted anyone around her to do, be happy... I will miss her so much and I know you all will too...

I don't know you, and I didn't know Angelica, but I feel compelled to just express my sympathies to Angelica's family and friends. For a while, I worked in an Emergency Room as a nurse, and part of my job was to call parents/family when a victim was brought into the E.R. from accidents. One is never prepared to accept news such as this. Even though I don't know you, I'm so sorry -- so sorry. My condolences to you for whatever it's worth. As a nurse, I have TOO MANY TIMES witnessed the sadness that you are feeling now.

I was so very sorry to read about the loss of Angelica. Please support each other in this tragic time. I lost a son at age 23 and know how much pain it is. You may not believe it now, but slowly, very slowly, this horrible time will be replaced with happy memories of your daughter and sister's short life. My heart goes out to you.

I knew Angie fairly well. I know all her family members are feeling as though there is a place in their heart missing. I miss her alot. She always smiled and was sweet to anyone and everyone. She was strong and I know her family is too. I hope that they get through this okay.

I also want to tell the whole family that they are kept in my prayers and that I love every single one of them.

*Everyone be careful and don't let one chance to say I love you, be the time that you don't.*

This is dedicated to the family of angelica maurer...

I never really knew angelica i just knew her as the girl who was always smiling and always friendly to everyone. When things like this happen it's easy to be confused as to why god would let something like this happen to such a good person and such a good family. But I believe that god takes the ones who he needs the most, the ones who know where there going. I believe Angelica knew where she was going even though she didnt know when but then again none of us do. This has made me really step back and think about a lot of things..and leah..i was in class with you last year and i just wanted to tell you that i look up to you so much in coming to the school and making that announcement..your alot stronger than i could ever be. But just remember that she is in a better place with no pain living the life we all wish we could..looking down on us and watching over us as we continue this life. You all are in my prayers...and i send all of you my love.

We will always miss her and we will always pray for her family. I had alot of fun getting to her know as a freshmen in world history I think...

I had a fun time in class with her and it was fun being in the same class as Leah too. We had fun in foods making hamburgers with cake and other things, but i guess i'll see you when I get there.!

I remember all the precious moments that we've shared from 5th grade until now.I told Tempestt about your accident. She misses you as much as I do. We've painted the "rock" at school lime green and pink..lol your favorite colors!! Im even wearing some of the lime green paint on my shoes!LOL! Watch over us sweetie! WE LOVE YOU SOOO MUCH!!
