I was friends with Angie throughout high school. I'll always remember the fun we had driving around in her Hawkeye VW bug and band practice. She was a wonderful person.

Angie was my husband's cousin, but she soon became my cousin too. Not because I married into the family, but because I quickly loved her like she was my own family long before Drew and I got married. I'll never forget her and am so grateful for knowing her and having the time I did have with her. May she R.I.P.
