au revoir mon cher Angelique

I have the truly sad and unenviable task of reporting the loss of a gentle lamb, and fierce patriot, our own dear girl, Angelique.
Simple words cannot express the profound loss I feel. To say I have lost one of my closest and dearest friends would be to betray my own feelings, I adored this girl. Her warm sweet childlike voice, contrasted with her signature feisty repartee, and unbridled humor made her a one-of-a-kind treasure. Her combative defense of her deeply held convictions, crossed many a sword with the best of her friends including yours truly, and her few if any enemies. She was a model Mother, daughter, sister, friend, patriotic American, Franco-American and staunch defender of the principals of a Free Republic, and above all FreeRepublic itself. Angelique said what she believed, with straight talk, a savvy humor and wit, but at times with a velvet sledgehammer ....tears, that was our darling French pastry.
Pray for our sweet girl, as I will, in hopes that she has found comfort and peace in His waiting arms.
pour toujours,  mon cher Angel,  with love......... Carlo

Thank you dear, I know she will be joining the other angels, and whispering lovely French poetry to everyone of them.

I loved her spirit. Angels walk in where fools fear to tread, to parody an old song.

My sincere condolences.

One of her dearest friends, and mine. I will surely miss your playfulness with her. I know I am going to cry at the sight of your name. My sincere thanks to you.

May God grant her rest and peace. From a long time Lurker.

Biker, she loved you, your wit and charm. We laughed at every one of your post on the food threads, and again when putting them into the cookbook. Thank you for your words, and those memories.

[Howie]

God love her! She almost always liked my corny cartoons. She would have liked this one, maybe it'll cheer you up, Carlo? click

Rest in peace, Angelique.

And to you Carlo.... be at peace.

Carlo, I'm so sorry to hear about Angelique. She was really sweet. I'm praying for both you and her.

Jim, you were her idol, and her standard bearer. Thank you for your leadership and your efforts, without you I would never have known this great website, any of these wonderful people, and especially Angelique...I am grateful for each and everything you have given me.

[Alamo-Girl]

I thank God for Angelique!

[carlo3b]

You where her soulmate, she talked often of her love for you. I could understand why she felt that way, you are so very special...tears again..

[carlo3b]

Jack, this is so very hard. She told me how many times she sought your guidance, and you always came through for her. I turn to you now, and thank you so very much.

[carlo3b]

Your post made me cry.....

Don't get me started again....thank you

[carlo3b]

Bunny dear, oh how she loved your USO Canteen threads and the good that you and Billie have accomplished, as I do, but we really enjoyed your recipe contributions..they always made us smile. Thanks my little patriot, thank you from all of us.

Norm, you were her hero in the trenches, and why not, you earned it...I salute you

[Phillip Augustus]

I did not know her personally, but corresponded with her on the boards and through freep-mail, and she seemed a real sweet person. rest in peace, Angelique.

[carlo3b]

We will morn together my friend, what a loss..I hurt deep, as I know you do as well. Pray for us all.

[carlo3b]

Oh my dearest friends, how can it ever be the same around here without the little one.....

Well, I was getting out my filet knife for that bones-only sucker fish recipe, and then I see you have contributed a wonderful, fabulous recipe! Grampa and Gramma definitely know how to cook up some fun!
