Angel was known for his enormous, huge heart, his smile, and his light filled any room he was in; he loved to grill and cook and most of all he loved spending his time with his family and dogs. As a boy he was a Cubs fan but as he grew up his love became football that made him a dedicated Dallas Cowboy fan. He enjoyed dancing and listening to music and looked his best in his cowboy boots and hat.
