"To Mr Pine and family, I met Angie many years ago when I was a young girl at Agnes & Manny Mello's house in Portsmouth. Manny & Agnes were my aunt & uncle. They were all members of the American Legion. I'll always remember what a great cook Angie was, in fact I have her recipe for Irish Bread. She was such a soft spoken, sweet person. I will always remember her talking about Frank and his motorcycle and how she dreaded it everytime he went out. May your wonderful memories of her, bring a smile to your face as you think of her during your time of grief."
In loving memory of
Angelina Pine

"Many of my fondest memories of VauVau center around her graceful hands - from cupping her hands over my childhood hands and lathering up at the bathroom sink to watching her delicate needlework to marveling at her baking wizardry "Don't touch that cake, though...it's for the Legion!" to petting animals that she so loved...beautiful hands on a beautiful lady. Now you're in His hands. I'll miss you, VauVau."
"Frank and Family, my prayers are with you all at this time. Many happy years and memories will carry you thru . God Bless for all the times you had together. Terri Sowers"
