Angel was an amazing son, brother, husband, father, grandfather and friend. He was also a very loving,
caring, and loyal friend. He struggled with his health for many years but his faith in God kept him fighting
and his will to live was very admirable. Angel enjoyed working with his hands, listening to old Spanish
music, audio Scriptures and reading the Bible. Angel had many friends who respected and loved him,
there are a couple of people that deserve acknowledgement for their continued presence; Maria (Angelina)
Dejesus, Father James Aherne, his sister, Santita, who never let a day pass without her calling him to
check up on him and his son-in-law James (Chino) who became a very special person in Angel's life and
ensured that he lived the last years of his life as normal as possible.
