My prayers are with you all on the loss of your mom and wife. Elena and Christina you were fortunate to have such an involved Mom. She was always at St. Mark School and I remember her helping me with centers in first grade. Stay strong and together you will make her proud.

To the Coppola and Woods Families, I only just learned of Angela's passing and my heartfelt sympathies go out to you all. I will never forget, she was one of the first friends i made in jr. High and we remained friends well after high school. I remember being at her wedding and baby shower like it was yesterday. Sadly, we lost touch, when i moved 15 yrs ago. But I will always remember her as a sweet, gentle spirit with a passion for reading. She was always the rational one when we were out as a group gettng into trouble. And because of Angela, and her love of reading, I love to read and to this day I always carry a book with me. My prayers are with you and may God Bless and guide through this difficult time ❤

I went to high school with Angela and I'm so saddened to hear this news. I lost my husband seven months ago unexpectedly at age 50 and I know this is very difficult. I haven't seen Angela in years but she's always been thought of by me. So sorry for your loss

Im sorry for your loss. Angela and I grew up in Stratford together, but had lost touch in our adult years. She was such a great friend and amazing person. God has a terrific angel.
