1. Like many others I knew Angie from the Post Office on Goldstream. She was a brilliant postal worker and I liked being helped by her and her welcome smile. I noticed her absence recently and am so sorry to see this sad news. My sincere condolences to her family -.

2. Angie was such a sweet girl, with a kind soul. She will be dearly missed by he family, and those who the pleasure of knowing her . I suspect she’s already had High Tea with my Debbie, in the midst of Heaven’s indescribable Gardens.
   Love in Christ,

   My thoughts and prayers are with family and friends. Angie was always calm and cheerful. Her smile and kind heart will be missed always.

4. My deepest condolences to Angie’s family, friends, coworkers, and customers on her passing. I don’t know anything about her story, as like many here, I only knew Angie by my interactions with her at the Postal Outlet, especially for the 16 years we lived nearly around the corner from the grocery store. Our son travelled a lot, and I often sent him cards and care packages. Angie was always so kind, interested, patient, and efficient and I looked forward to my post office visits because of her. She was a lovely person with such warm, beautiful eyes and a kind smile. I’m sad to know she passed so young. Thank you for sharing the news in the Goldstream Gazette. She will be missed and remembered.

5. Jeanette, Eldon and Angie were our first friends on Thetis Island in 1979. Angie was a delightful pretty little girl mixing into things, always on the go, a little dynamo! I was delighted to meet up again with Angie and Jeanette recently. I am so shocked and saddened by the sad news. My heartfelt sympathy. ❤

6. I moved to Langford in 2010 and Angie was one of the first people I met. My business had me at the post office at least once a week and often with huge bulk of mailouts. She managed the post office line up like a champ, never seeing her fluster, always friendly, helpful and efficient. It was a pleasure to watch and even a long line up was easier knowing Angie was in charge. Anyone who trained under her know they were taught by the best. She was a patient, kind human and went the extra effort for her family and friends. Angie and I became friends sharing recipes, books, and stories about our families over the years. She loved being an Aunty and holiday dinners with her family. Her dry sense of humor made our visits fun.
   During the pandemic a couple times I teared up and she gently leaned in and said it’s ok a lot of people cry with me lately. Angie was an important part of our community and is missed by many. Those who knew her are better for it – she was a smile and light in your day. Some people, like flowers give pleasure just by being and that was our Angie of the Goldstream Post Office.
   I miss you, my friend.

7. My deepest condolences, my sympathy and prayers go out to her family during these sad times.

8. Oh – this just can’t be. We have lost the most wonderful, patient, sweet lady. I always enjoyed my trip to the Post Office at Fairways, even when there were big lineups. Angie was a real pro and made the task so pleasant. So sorry for the family…such a loss.

9. I was in the post office last week and wondered where’s Angie? She was so pleasant to deal with and didn’t ever seem flustered and kept smiling in spite of being very busy. I’ve known her since she worked with my niece at Western Foods many years ago. I was heartbroken to read that she is no longer with us. She was so young and beautiful inside and out. She will be dearly missed. My condolences to Angie’s family.

10. What a loss! Angie was an angel, her beautiful smile, helpful attitude was a delight to be in her presence. We all feel that we have lost a great friend. We take comfort in knowing she is enjoying the presence of the Lord. Bless you and thank you Angie.
