So sorry to hear of Vangie’s passing. I was a good friend of her late daughter, Debi. Vangie was such a fun lady. I will always remember her begging to cut my hair. I am sure she and Debi are now reunited. Prayers and hugs to Bree, Cory, and rest of family. Rest in peace, Vangie.
I remember her from going to my Aunt Julies. I think we were related somehow. She always was laughing and very sweet. Sorry to hear of her passing! Much sympathy to her family.
