Sending prayers to Angie's family. We were colleagues at Heritage Bank. Angie was larger than life and the nicest person. God bless her and keep her safely in his arms. I know with all my heart she's in heaven with her dear Charles. Forever in our heart!

I was proud to know Angie and privileged to work under her guidance for the Marian Catholic Class of '71 50th Reunion. She was a lovely person and I am blessed to have gotten to know her better in our later years. I will miss her and pray that she be at peace after dealing so graciously and bravely with her illness. God bless all those family members who have lost such a wonderful member of the family.

Prayers and thoughts for Angie's family and friends from the Myers family. Although our branch of the family is from North Dakota, we visited the Prendergast family in Cedar Lake when I was a child and I corresponded with and followed Angie on facebook as "cousins" since we are almost the same age, but don't believe we ever met in person. My parents knew her parents John Prendergast, and my father was a brother to Harriett "Boo" Myers Prendergast (John's parents).

Dear Mike
I wish I could of been at StAgnes to celebrate Angie life which is where so many things happened. (My health is slowing me down)
I know the loss of love is devastating, my husband passed away 5 years ago. I keep reaching for meaning in things to make my life easier.
Angie was your moon and you were her orbit. I really believe that . It will give you focus and I know she would be proud of you in days to come. Try to find some peace.
always with love ,Suzanne Wozniak Boyle (Suzy)
please Lady of Fatima be with us
