She was a soulful singer whose work will live on. "I Try" was a favorite that I often listen to and always will. Sad to loose this beautiful person so soon.

It is with deepest condolences we send our thanks to you, family of Angela Bofill. On the internet are so many posts of her music, music videos, her live performances and interviews. One thing I enjoyed was listening to her - what a sense of humor she had even while living with the changes in her life from chronic health problems! It is the one thing you as family and close friends knew long before us as fans and so much, much more. She was positive despite adversity and it was because she had YOU. You cared for her from the beginning to her final rest.
Thank you!
Finding joy while living with aches and pains - an example we all can imitate. Continue as a family to rejoice, endure, be hopeful, and persevere in prayer.

Condolences prayers to her family and friends.
We fell in love with her voice and songs from the beginning of her recording career.
We knew she had medical struggles starting back some years ago. Her voice has been missed for awhile yet we will always remember her songs.

I meet Ms. Bofill while working as a CNA. She was one of my patients. I knew who she was because I had heard her music. Ms. Bofill gave me and my husband a autograph picture and one of her CDS. I still listen to her music.

To the Bofill-Vincent Family,
My heartfelt condolences to you and your family during this difficult time. Ms. Angela was a remarkable person and I hear that she was funny. My ex is a guitarist. He knew that she is one of my favorite singers. To date, I own all of her albums. I will always remember the time when he came into the house and excitedly told me that he would be working with her.
Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. If there is anything I can do to support you, please don´t hesitate to reach out. Wishing you peace and strength as you navigate this challenging period.
Sincerely,
D. Khauli

Angela had a strong , radiant personality as well as a beautiful voice. I was a few years ahead of her , also a member of our high school chorus, and she was a phenomenal soloist, a real joy to listen to , and perform with.
Rest in God's Care dear Angela.

I attended Hunter College H.S. and was a couple of classes ahead of her. We were in the choir together fir a short time. What a voice even before Angela developed it into the celestial instrument that it was. I moved to Texas after law school and was thrilled to learn that Angela became an outstanding recording artist. I have so many of her CDs and listen to her whenever I want to have my heart touched. What artistry and what a life for us to celebrate! Rest in peace and power, Angela.
