Angela was a very courageous, compelling, and independent woman. She occupied a lot of space in multiple people's hearts. She was baptized by Pastor Vernon Alexander, Sr. at Greater New St. Peter Baptist Church at an early age. In 1984, she graduated from West St. John High School. As she grew up, she was a very hardworking woman at any task that was given to her. Most of her jobs consisted of janitorial/housekeeping work. One of the most important things she loved doing each day was reading her bible and watching Joel Osteen every night on YouTube. She also enjoyed caring for her mother and her grandkids. Angela enjoyed family gatherings, cooking different dishes for her household and on holidays.  She also enjoyed watching boxing on YouTube in the evenings.  She loved experiencing different restaurants, and talking on the phone with her siblings and relatives almost every night and day. Her favorite vacation was going to Orlando, Florida.

 Angela will be missed by many.
