Dear John -
A "Whatever happened to ..." question led me to this site and your wife's notice of passing. I want to let you know that you and your family are in my prayers.
It's been 43 years since you lugged my piano down 3 flights of stairs and I have never forgotten that kind act. I wish only the best for you and having lost my first husband, want you to know that the road you are on now does eventually get easier to travel.
Take care.
Paulette

Angie was a genuine person. She was always so upbeat and a joy to be around. She treated everyone the same. My best memories of her was when we were showing in the novice amatuer classes together back in 1990. I bought my horse Little Lady Tardy from the Bramas. We had so much fun. Angie will be truly missed by everyone that she touched in her life. My thoughts are with the family.

Gina and Richard,
I only met your mother a few times, but she was always so pleasant and nice. She fought a long battle and has finally found peace. She will be missed by Kevin dearly, she was his second mother. I'm sure he feels very sad because he couldn't be there for her or you guys. Keep in touch Gina. Remember God only takes the good ones. Rest in Peace Angie.

Angie's 1000 watt smile and personality to match will be missed. She had a way to find the good in everything and everyone. She knew that second chances given with love and compassion could turn a person around. What grace and optimism she had. Even if you weren't family, she treated you like you were. She will be missed. Our deepest sympathies in your loss. Thank you for sharing your mom with us!

Angies smile and wit will forever be missed - she touched our lives and added color to the world! To her children, may you always know how much she was loved and will be missed - our thoughts and prayers are with all of her loved ones.

Angie was such a special lady. I am truly sad for your loss. My children and I so enjoyed our visits to your family farm and even though the horses were magical to them, your mom was more so. From a kids perspective (maybe mine too), she was cooler than Santa Claus and had better candy than the Easter Bunny. We will miss her.

It was an honor to know and work with Angie. The world could use more upbeat outgoing people like her. She brightened my day whenever I had talked with her and always had a positive attitude. I'll miss her pretty smile and kind words.

We were together last week and your looked so radiant to me, you will always be an inspiration to me in my lifetime.You are a legand and never will be forgotten.
Love you always my friend.
