Angie came into our family when she was only 17, having married our son Ronnie Thompson; subsequently becoming a Mamma to our Granddaughter ( Erin Thompson ) . We were so lucky! Angie could always make me laugh, with the stories she told. She was an exceptional person, loved people regardless of race, religion, or gender. She will be MISSED. Now Angie, go Rock & Roll with Elvis!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
