Angela Vecellio

Angela Renee Culveyhouse, beloved mother, daughter, sister, and friend, passed away peacefully on July 5, 2025, at the age of 47. Born on February 16, 1978, in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, Angela brought joy and laughter to those around her throughout her life. At the time of her passing, she resided in Palm Beach County, where she had built a life filled with love, community service, and professional accomplishment.

Angela's journey began at St. John High School, after which she pursued higher education at The University of Mississippi. Her academic path led her to Atlanta, Georgia, where she graduated from Life University with a degree as a Doctor of Chiropractic. Her professional achievements included owning Palm Beach Medical, where she dedicated herself to the well-being of her patients.

Angela was deeply committed to her community, actively participating in organizations such as The American Heart Association and the Junior League of Palm Beaches where she held many leadership roles. Her kindness and gentle spirit left an indelible mark on everyone she met.

Known for her infectious laughter and ability to light up any room, Angela cherished the time spent with her two sons, Tripp and Ford, and their playful dog, Diesel. Angela loved anything outdoors from hiking Mount Kilimanjaro and Machu Picchu to traveling across the globe. She loved watching football and especially the New Orleans Saints. She was an avid baseball fan, and she loved attending baseball games, especially those where her boys were on the field.

An adventurer at heart, Angela loved to travel and share new experiences with Tripp and Ford. A recent memorable journey took them to Tanzania, Africa, where she and her sons contributed to the construction of a well for school children, ensuring they had access to clean water. This act of generosity exemplified Angela's compassionate nature and desire to make a positive impact in the world.

Angela's life was also marked by historic moments. She was in Germany with her father when the Berlin Wall fell, a significant event she commemorated by keeping a piece of the wall, a cherished memory shared with her dad.

Angela is survived by her proudest legacy and her greatest loves, her two sons, Leo "Tripp" Arthur Vecellio III and Stafford "Ford" James Vecellio; her father, Dr. James Culveyhouse (Xuan); her sister, Tracy D'Angelo; Her brothers, Eric Stafford (Mellissa); and James "Bernie" Culveyhouse Jr. (Ayan); She also leaves behind her dearly loved nieces and nephews. Angela was preceded in death by her mother, Denise Doucet; her sister, Jenny Green; and her beloved grandparents, George and Peggy Doucet and Garland and Margaret Culveyhouse.

The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the medical staff at Memorial Hospital in Gulfport, Mississippi, and The Cleveland Clinic in Weston, Florida, for their excellent care and support.

A celebration of life will be held on Monday, July 14th, from 4:00pm-7:00pm pm at Quattlebaum Funeral, Cremation and Event Center, 5411 Okeechobee Blvd, West Palm Beach, FL. 33417. A Mass will follow on Tuesday, July 15th, at 10:00am at the Basilica of St. Edward Catholic Church, with burial thereafter at 144 North County Road, Palm Beach, FL 33480.

In closing, Angela's life was full, enriched by good friends, joyous times, and the love of her sons. Though her time with us may feel too brief, may we find peace in the memories of shared laughter and love. "If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joys," she would remind us. As we look towards the sunshine of tomorrow, let us cherish the legacy she leaves behind, confident that she is now at peace.
