I will always remember Aunt Angie as "Grandma 2." She was such a fun and caring person. I loved to hear the stories she and mom (Theresa) would tell abut growing up and their families. I am so sad that she is gone, but I know she is in a better place.
I'm sorry that I am unable to come to Kaukauna to say good-bye. She will always hold a special place in my heart, and will always be in my prayers.
May you be blessed with wonderful memories and peace.
