Angie died suddenly and unexpectedly in a road accident 11th of March, 1993. At the age of 16 she had only just gotten her drivers license the previous July .She lived in a small American town in Illinois. Surviving Angie is her Mother, her Step Father , Two Brothers, One Sister, and several niece and nephews. Angie had been very upset about something and went for a drive in the middle of the night, it was March and so very cold , and frosty. This caused a thin layer of frost on the black asphalt road she drove on. Angie was a relatively new driver and did not have the full benefit of experience to handle a vehicle which was out of control on a slipperly road.Due to this factor she over compensated on her steering and her horrible fate ensued. Angie was my baby sister, and it's coming to the anniversary of her death again, until now I simply have not been strong enough concerning these matters to make her a memorial page, so I thought as a gift to her this year I would try. I have included 3 songs on this page, "Angie" sung by Toni Amos, "She talks to angels" sung by The Black Crowes, and "Who you'd be now" sung by Kenny Chesney. When we lost Angie we lost the rebel of our pack, the daring one who wasn't afraid to stand tall and be different.We also lost a shining star that was finally getting her footing in life after many years of struggle with the trials of being young adult. Angie was very popular at school, and in her Junior year at High School. She was a very beautiful girl inside and out, one minute she could be sweetness and light, and the very next she could be a storm brewing overhead. There was never anything boring about Angie, and she always had to do it her way, as it was the rebels way. Angie loved wolves, motorcycles, walks in nature, and hanging out with her friends. There are so many stories to be told about my sister, reflections of our growing up, images that stick in my mind like a film playing. I will write them down someday, it's still too hard for me now though.I was 23 when Angie was taken from us, for some reason Angie's death hit me harder than any other tragedy I had ever encountered in my life, and it honestly to this day has never fully healed or left me. I know I went off my head with the shock and grief, I stopped being who I had been up to the point of her death, and suddenly I became more fearful of things, more unsure of things, and yet more reckless in how I lived my life. I would see her around every corner, hear her speak to me in my head, I began slowely losing all touch with my life and spiraled down a long dark tunnel.Our mother stood strong in the light of day, but I knew she was devastated, inconsolable. It's 14 years later...and the pain inside isn't as it had been, but if I allow myself to think of Angie as I am now...I can't sleep, I become sad and restless...and I feel an inner fear that keeps me on guard about things happening to those I Love. No I havn't healed completely , my mother's done her best to get through as well, but the sudden death of a young person is never an easy burden to bear.I will leave you with my mothers choice for a quote on Angie's headstone: "In Gods Wildness, Lies The Hope Of the World."

We thought of you with love today, But that is nothing new. We thought about you yesterday, And the days before that, too. We think of you in silence. We often speak your name. Now all we have are memories, And your picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake, With which we'll never part. God has you in His Keeping. We have you in our Heart.

I hope this finds you surrounded by love! We miss you so much and hope your spirits at peace.
Just wanted to express my sympathy to Angies family and friends. May God give you strength to cope with this loss. You'll be together again someday, on the other side, at HOME. She's still with you, sitting on your shoulder. I'm sure she see's this beautiful, loving memorial and feels your love. Now I'm going to sign up for this wonderful site and make a few memorials myself. Thanks for leading me here. Sorry for your loss, Sherry

hugs from heaven
Hugs From Heaven
by Charlotte Anselmo
When you feel a gentle breeze
Caress you when you sigh
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From a loved one way up high.
If a soft and tender raindrop
Lands upon your nose
They've added a small kiss
As fragile as a rose.
If a song you hear fills you
With a feeling of sweet love
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From someone special up above.
If you awaken in the morning
To a bluebird's chirping song
It's music sent from Heaven
To cheer you all day long.
If tiny little snowflakes
Land upon your face
It's a hug sent from Heaven
Trimmed with Angel lace.
So keep the joy in your heart
If you're lonely my dear friend
Hugs that are sent from Heaven
A broken heart will mend.

Angie was an angel on earth. And she still is an angel on the other side and she watches over you Toni, everyday with a warm heart and keeps you from harm. She lit this world with a beautiful firey light for us all to see and feel and now she lights up Heaven. She uses her beautiful light to show you the way to wonderfulness and a great life as only you can live since she cannot. Just imagine her beautiful flame in your heart because that is where she knows you need it the most.
Blessed Be Angie!!!!!

Dezertblu (Sister) February 26, 2007Where The Garden meets The Road
You have been gone for 14 years now Angie, the amount of time amazes me, as the wound in my heart is still tender.I see you smiling as I push you around in the empty laundry basket, when you were little....I hear you laughing , a very distinct laugh....when I would push you in that old tire swing Tom made us.....I recall us taking the many walks in the country, or the cemetary, I remember you stopping by my house just before you died, saying you were finally happy and was looking forward to your future.....Your first dog "scooter" a chocolate lab, I remember fighting with you on how I thought it was a dumb name for a dog, LOL well you know as well as I do...arguing was another thing you and I did so well. When I started getting boyfriends, I would pay you in carmel twix to keep it quiet from mom....she always found out anyways though..and you got the chocolate. Well thats enough for now...peace to you my baby sister.
Where the garden meets the road and the willow sweeps the pond, there I shall meet you my Love, forever and beyond.
Where the sunset bleeds into the sea and the magick fills the wand, there I shall meet you my Love, forever and beyond. These words I wrote on your flowers 14 years ago...still true today ...

Dear Lord
Thankyou for the Angel
you lent us for awhile,
She brought us laughter,
And an everlasting smile,
She loved us, inspired us
our guiding light,
Now she shines in heaven,
with wings of pure white.
She will forever walk softly,
in our hearts and in our dreams.
When our feelings run rampent
And our tears begin to fall.
Her spirit will surround us
leading comfort to one and all.
We will always miss her,
time can not erase the PAIN yet,
we will always be grateful
that into our live,
OUR PRECIOUS GIRL CAME.
R,I,P ANGIE God bless you and all your family.

For Toni and family x x x
When tomorrow starts without me and im not there to see,
The sun will rise and find your eyes are filled with tears for me.
I wish so much you would'nt cry the way you did today,
While thinking of the many things we did'nt get to say.
I know how much you love me, as much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me, I know you'll miss me too.
Life at times will catch you unawares, but please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name, and took me by the hand.
He said my place was ready, In heaven way up above,
And that I'd have to leave behind, all those I dearly loved.
As I turned to walk away, the tears fell from my eyes,
For all my life I'd always thought I did'nt want to die.
I had so much to live for, so much left yet to do,
It seemed so very cruel to me, that I was leaving you.
Thoughts of all our yesterday's, the good one's and the bad,
Are remembered for all the love we shared, especially the fun we had.
If I could re-live just yesterday, even for a short while,
I'd say my goodbye's and kiss you, and hopefully see you smile.
As the days and months pass into years,
Don't think we're far apart.
For everytime you think of me,
I'll be there in your heart.
