May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. My name is Sue Wakeland. Angie and Stephanie lived with me and my family, Steve, Chris, Abby, Josh, and Bobby 1981-82 on Chestnut in Falls Church. We loved having them as part of our family. Stephanie was a baby then and I cared for her while Angie finished High School. We moved from Falls Church to several different states because My husband, Steve, was in the military. We moved back to Va to Fairfax where Angie came to visit us. We lost track of Angie after that because we moved again to Utah. All of us would love to have Angie´s address and phone so we can talk to her aand kids again! Many years have passed and we have 2 other daughters since we all lived together. I am so sorry to hear Angie´s Dad passed in 2006! I knew Angie´s Grandma in Falls Church but never got to meet her Dad. Excited to hear from Angie! We love her and kids! My address is 9467 n 3830 w, pleasant grove, utah 84062. Cell 8014738673 and email [email protected]. Nancy, if u receive this please send Angie´s contact info to me. Many years I have searched for her. I pray u will see this message! Thank u! Many blessings on you!

Nancy, Our sympathy to you and your family in the loss of Joe. We have spent many wonderful times with you all in your home and remember so much the fireworks at the Airport and how Joe took us across the runway. He is now in the palm of God's hands free from pain and suffering.
