I'm so sorry to hear about this. For several years, Angela had welcomed me as a visiting organist for the Christmas Eve service at Holy Trinity in New Castle. I always loved working with her-and, in fact, was thinking of her just today, before this news came.

As Angela often said, "no words." There are no words to express the sadness. There really aren't any words to express Angela's profound impact on our family and so many others. Her gift of music, and in particular, her ability to encourage and support all to share in her love of music is a living legacy. Love you all.
