Angelo Mangos Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jul. 22, 2025.
Beloved father, brother, and friend, Angelo Mangos, 84, of Lutz, Florida, passed away peacefully on July 18, 2025. Angelo was born in Mytilene, on the island of Lesbos, Greece, to Christos and Kleonike (Nakitas) Mangos. The Mangos family arrived in America in the mid-1940s and settled in Lynn, MA.

Angelo served four years in the U.S. Army, serving in Germany for a time. He graduated from Suffolk University with a B.S. in Botany and also attended Harvard Extension School. Most of his career was spent as a USDA Produce Inspector. Along the way, Angelo met his (late) wife Yvonne LeBlanc and they raised their children in Swampscott, MA. Later, Angelo met and became engaged to his (late) fiancée Selena Larkin and together they moved to Florida.

Angelo enjoyed being a Freemason and served as the 1985 Master of the Amicable Lodge in Cambridge, MA. He also enjoyed cooking, dining out, and horse racing. Those who knew Angelo best said that "Horse racing was the sport of kings, for a king of a man."

Angelo is survived by his daughters Nikki, Maria, and Ginny; brother Charles Mangos and sister-in-law Nancy; brother Harry Mangos; step-granddaughter Jessica; step-grandson Jack; caretaker and friend Saundra; multiple grandchildren and great grandchildren; nieces/nephews and great nieces/nephews; dear friends; and other family.

Angelo is predeceased by his daughter Christina; stepdaughter Kara; his brother Peter and wife Despina; his brother Nick and wife Lillian; his sister Mary; his sister-in-law, Athena Mangos (wife of brother Harry); fiancée Selena Larkin; and late wife Yvonne.

No public services are scheduled for Angelo. If you wish to honor him, please make a donation in Angelo's name to the Florida Heart Research Foundation at www.floridaheart.org.

Thank you for stepping up long ago and becoming my real dad. You gave love, lessons on life, how to pick the best horse, chess strategies, cooking favorites, and a sense of security every child should know. I miss you with all I am dad.
