Angela was born on September 26, 1953, in Dubuque, Iowa, daughter of Lawrence and Ann (Norton) Dillon.
Angie attended Visitation Academy for 3 years, graduated from Wahlert Catholic High School, Class of 1971, and went to work. She worked as a clerk for St. Vincent de Paul and in the laundry and as a candy-striper at Mercy Hospital. She had a knack for storytelling and was a dreamer who kept people entertained for hours.
