Angela truly lived life to the fullest through simple pleasures; chatting with family and friends, and spending time with her children whom she cherished. Angela had an uncanny ability to make people laugh with her quick wit and jokes, she had a contagious laugh that was recognizable and always filled the room. You could always find her volunteering and always just being there for community events, she truly loved her community. Angela had a passion for cooking, she attended Seven Generations Culinary program and in her community, she was known for her bannock. Some of her favourite pastimes were sewing, beading, singing and dancing, going for rides around the community, especially during Christmas time and admiring all the lights. She would often just sit outside her home and be wonderstruck by the sunsets and looking at the stars at night.

Aunts Irene Cowley, Stella Keast, and Adeline Roy. Nephew Andrew Swayde. Uncle Simon Kent Sr. Cousins, Martina Cowley, Michael Roy, Shawna & Holly Keast.

In tears we saw you sinking,

We watched you fade away,

You suffered much in silence,

You fought so hard to stay.

You faced your task with courage,

Your spirit did not bend,

But still you kept on fighting

Until the very end.

The Creator saw you getting tired

When a cure was not to be,

So He put His arms around you,

and whispered “come with me”.

So when we saw you sleeping

So peaceful, free from pain,

We could not wish you back

To suffer that again.

We love you always,

Until we meet again.
