    I am sad to hear of Angie’s passing. Angie was a great friend to everybody in the Kipling area. I will miss her hugs at church. She was so kind to do the reading at my mother’s funeral nine years ago. Love you Angie!

    Hi Mary and Lori, we are so sad to hear that our dear friend Angie has passed. We love her and know that she is resting in the arms of Jesus. Love you, Ann and Ralph.

    My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Angie was one special lady to me as I “grew up” with Julie. I have so many fond memories of her having Julie and me over to bake at her house. She was a patient, kind, funny and gentle soul. May the wonderful memories of her carry you through this difficult time.

    Dear family,
    Angie was such a dear lady, a friend to many. We had many conversations, every time we saw her we had to catch up. I especially remember Angie having M&M’s in her pocket to give to the kids as she was checking the parents out at her register when she worked at Super Value. Keep all the great memories close to your hears. Your all in our thoughts and prayers.

    Dear sweet Angie was my mom’s best friend. They worked together at church lunches,the senior center and went to bingo. When mom got sick Angie would come visit her every day. They shared recipes…..laughs and stories. Mom really looked forward to her visits. After her death and i’d run into Angie she would tell me how much she missed her and we would hug and cry. We all were so blessed to have had Angie in our lives. She will be missed. Rest in peace my sweet friend.

    Angie was such a wonderful person. I can remember her since i was a child living in Kipling. She was a friend of my moms Barb(RASPOR)Wilson. I will miss trick or treating with my children and grandchildren and our last stop was always Angie. This last time she said it was her last day before going to Bishop Noah. Halloween will never be the same without her wonderful smiling face and inviting the little ones in.

    Dear Lori and family,
    I am so sorry to hear about your Mom and/ or Grandmother passing away. She was a great lady. I remember stopping by to see
    Her when my Mom and I would gamble in Escanaba. We had a very nice visit. I heard from my high school friend, Karen McGraw about the news on your Mom. Karen had worked with your mom in a grocery store.
    Praying for you and your family.
    Cherish all the great memories.

    Gladstone has lost a wonderful lady for sure. I loved to visit Angie & Mary when I was young and over the years. So sweet & kind, a mom to us all! Your mom/grandma was always smiling. We will miss her – luckily, our memories are very special!!

    Dear Lori, Larry, and Mary,
    I was so sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. Kipling has lost one of the original, a friend and neighbor, and a true treasure. The last time I stopped in to see her, we talked late into the evening about so many wonderful things: the Valencic family picnic at Rapid River Park, days of monopoly and paper dolls in the back room of which she was so tolerant, and her chocolate cookies with vanilla icing. Good memories for sure. She’ll be missed.
