We love you all and miss you. Thank you for being the best friends that rarely meet. Sometimes they are the most endearing.

Walker Family, We are so very sorry for your loss. Angie was so kind to all of us. The girls played sports with Emma and we often would talk/compare notes on the happenings of the city... Angie was always one step ahead of what was going on. She always had a smile and a kind word for especially Austin with his Art. You all, Angie’s family, brought her the greatest joy and the most pride of any mother I have ever known. She will be missed but not forgotten. Thoughts and prayers are with you all, Todd and Corrinne Kimmell

Dear Walker Family, Im saddened to hear of Angies passing. My kids went to school with Alicia and Nolan so I became friendly with Angie through them. This was one of the best decisions I ever made because every minute I spent with Angie I left her feeling that I could do better and that is no joke. She had her SHIT together. Angie made everyone around her better. People gravitated to her. She was one of a kind and amazing mother to her kids. I’ll cherish my memories of Angie forever. RIP Angie.

Dear Tony, Michaela, Bethany, Alicia & Nolan, we are so sorry to hear of your loss of your beautiful wife and mom, and friends to so many. She was such a loving, kind, caring and strong person who will be dearly missed. Our heartfelt condolences to you all. Angie will be forever missed but will always be with you in spirit and life-long happy memories. Love to you all. Glen and Theresa Mullen

My dear American Family, I am still in tears while writing this and it is hard to find the right words for such a loss. We know how you feel and wished we could be with you. The following words helped us so much when Daddy left us. It is certainly not easy to look at it that way at first, but then it is such a comforting thought and we are sure that Angie would have loved to see it that way: “Death is nothing at all. It does not count. I have only slipped away into the next room. Nothing has happened. Everything remains exactly as it was. I am I, and you are you, and the old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged. Whatever we were to each other, that we are still. Call me by the old familiar name. Speak of me in the easy way which you always used. Put no difference into your tone. Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without an effort, without the ghost of a shadow upon it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was. There is absolute and unbroken continuity. What is this death but a negligible accident? Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am but waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just round the corner. All is well. Nothing is hurt; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before. How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again.” (by Henry Scott-Holland, a priest at St. Paul's Cathedral of London) Wilhelm and Angie are now together, laughing and enjoying Italian wine. And we will think of her “with no difference in our tone” when preparing her famous ice-coffee in the summer, or her delicious fajitas (with max. 10 olives per child, one on each finger) or when saying “whatever floats your boat…whatever your little heart desires”. Angie was the most generous and selfless person we have ever met. “Sharing is caring” was her philosophy of life and she took it to a new level. Always passionate, always open-hearted, always positive, never any “hard-knock life” moment, no matter what. She was so much fun to be around and her lust for life was truly contagious – not one single guest from our wedding does not remember Angie as the bundle of energy that rocked the dance floor with her family! Angie had that beautiful talent to turn strangers into friends in the blink of an eye and then friends into family members. She always remembered all names of my friends and sincerely cared for how they were doing. And she had that lovely conviction, especially when the kids were still small, that everything becomes even better when it is a surprise. And she was full of surprises. How all of this will be missed so much! I constantly have to think of so many beautiful moments from last year when we were all at the beach: one of them being the sky lanterns rising over the ocean…or the fireworks illuminating the night sky with golden stars. It makes me think of my favourite phrase from the ‘Little Prince’ book: “You - You alone will have stars as no one else has them... In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars will be laughing when you look at the sky at night. You, only you, will have stars that can laugh! And when your sorrow is comforted - time soothes all sorrows - you will be content that you have known me...”. Angie is for sure a laughing star and we are blessed & grateful that we have known her. She made the world a better place and she will continue living in many hearts & souls; in ours for sure. We will help Lara & Felix to tell their baby brother, Angie’s German grandson, how wonderful she was. We loved her to the moon and back, and so we love you and are always by your side in our thoughts. We will “share a smile & helping hand” to live her heritage and leave white roses in the Baltic sea of Poland next week to bring her heritage home. Her daughter Roberta (Doberta) with Sven and her friend Mechthild

Dear Walker Family, We are so sad and sorry to hear of Angie’s passing. We loved her and will miss her. She had such a great wit and sense of humor she always could make us laugh, especially Kevin! She marched to her own drumbeat for sure. We loved her for that! Love, The Riley’s Kevin, Valerie & John

Dear Tony, Michaela, Bethany, Alicia and Nolan, We are heartbroken to hear of Angie's passing. She was one of the most genuine friends anyone could hope to have. She touched so many lives in so many ways. And we were so lucky to have her in ours. She will be missed so much. Rest In Peace Angie

I am so so sorry to hear. Reading this eloquently written obituary ... oh my gosh, it's so beautifully written and so true. Angie was truly a very special person and yes, always with a smile. One of the best moms, red aiding amazing kids abd passing on what's important. She did so much for others. She will be missed by many. And although writing with tears in my eyes, I am smiling thinking about her beautiful spirit. God bless you Angie and watch over your family from heaven.

Angie, we will miss u at the park. Never told u the time gunner jumped in womans car and went after her groceries. She was yelling for help. One of funniest memories of my short amount of time spent with you at the park. God bless you! And your family.

I played soccer with Angela at Hoosac Valley High School. I haven't seen her in many, many years but she is someone you never forget. She was such a bright light and she was so kind and funny. Knowing her made my life better. So sorry for your loss.

To Tony & family, So sorry for your loss. Angie was a wonderful person whose smile would light up a room. She made our neighborhood special. My prayers and love will be with you all.

Angie was a rockstar! If she was in the room you knew it. In the best way possible way. When I told my kids the sad news I told them both every time I saw Angie she wanted to know everything about what you guys were doing and truly cared. She will be missed by all that knew her and even those who didn't. Thoughts and prayers to her entire family. xoxo Maryanne Donovan Friend

Dear Family of Angie, We are living in Florida now, but I am remembering the wonderful days spent in New England especially when my two daughters were young. When visiting Angie in her home, she always shared that bubbly personality with the biggest smile. I also spent time camping with Constance's family and many other outings in her Dear Mother's yard in North Adams. Picked the garden with Angie"s Dad! Had delightful meals together. Her brothers gave us personal tours of the area of North Adams. My heart breaks for all of you. Praying for this whole family especially Tony and the children. Prayers for this dear family that your broken hearts will be mended which is God's promise to us. Love, hugs, and sweet remembrances, Larry, & Barbara Robinson Jamie Fulton & Carrie Rpbinson

My sincerest sympathy to Tony and family over the recent loss of your beloved wife and mother. Angie was such a special, warm, loving person and she will be dearly missed by everyone who knew her.

Sis and family, I am saddened to hear of Angela's passing. I wish I knew her. But if she is anything like the Perenick's that Iknow, she was giving, warm and kind. My sincerest condolences.

Dearest Family: we are so sorry for our loss. Angie has truly left her mark on all of us. A more caring, thoughtful and generous person she enriched the lives of us all. She will surely be missed. Would that we could have had more time with her. We reflect on the time we knew and spent with her. Always willing to help without being asked. May her soul rest in peace and her memory be a blessing for all. Sending virtual hugs to you all.

We met Angie through softball, when Bethany and Natalie played together. Feels like a lifetime ago. Angie was always quick witted and up for a good laugh. She never bragged about her kids but was very proud of them. Angie could be described as the salt of the earth. Deepest condolences to you all as I know there will be a huge presence missing in your lives. Rest easy Angie. The O’ Donovan Family❤️

Angie and I met at Pageant Field and immediately became kindred spirits. God I loved her. Her passion for life and determination to make the most of it for her and her kids was evident in all that she did. As we walked our dogs we talked, and in our own minds solved the worlds problems and then we just laughed... a lot. The laughing continued until we realized Gunner had been missing for about an hour and then the search for him began...it started with Angie creating a whistle that could be heard throughout the South Shore and may have ended with some colorful language heard only by me. She loved my dog Murphy and always called him her sweet boy. They are together now in Heaven taking long walks and putting smiles on the faces of everyone they meet. Rest In Peace my friend...you will be missed!💙💜💚

I met Angie as a Freshman softball mom and she was the first person to welcome me. Who knew over the course of six years we were at softball, golf and hockey together. She was wonderful and always made me laugh. She coached me on college admissions and her advice was spot on. My heart breaks for all of you but you were her world. Forever missed and loved. The McGahey Family

I am so sorry to hear about Angie. I met her at Quincy Hockey. She was always so nice to me. Sitting with me so I wouldn’t be alone, until my family arrived. I will keep all of you in my thoughts & prayers.
