I cannot think of Angelene without being warmed again by the steady glow of her love, which I saw in her face not only every time I was there for the program, but even for the decades when I just showed up as a guest. All the years later, whenever I saw her and our eyes would meet, she'd light up in recognition, and it was as if hardly any time had passed at all. Her name was the big clue, left right out in the open--she was an angel. And I feel blessed to have known her and to have been blessed by her love and care.
