Angela graduated from Assumption School and worked at Nettleton Shoe Co. and M&T Bank for many years before retiring. She loved to travel with her sister Mary throughout the United States and Europe. They also enjoyed going to NYC to see Broadway Productions. “The Three Musketeers”, as she and her sisters were called, enjoyed many Sunday drives together and shared lots of laughs and good times with their close friend Norma Miguel. Angela was very loving; she’d be the first to put the coffee pot on and get cookies or deserts for her guests. She always had handfuls of candy for the kids and enjoyed being around family. Angela will be deeply missed by her family and friends.
