There isn't a lot I can add to the fine recollections already sent by
my fellow alumni. I remember Angelene's sweet nature and kindness. She
always smiled, an indication in her case of her love for her work (and
doing it on a small scale has taught me how much work cooking is). I
always thanked the cooks, but I was always a good bit more grateful
for Angelene's cooking. May she be long remembered and loved by those
who knew her.

Quoting James Ayres <jay...@cvctx.com>:
Angelene died today. She was our cook at Winedale for my 30 years
of Shakespeare at Winedale. She loved cooking and she loved
Shakespeare at Winedale. In 1980 she promised me that she would
retire only when I did. And she kept that promise. Many of you do
not know but at the end of each summer, she gave me a greeting card
on which she wrote simply “Thanks”. Inside was a folded new 100
bill. For 30 years. For Shakespeare at Winedale. And you likely
don’t know that when she cooked fried chicken, she saved the wings
for me, hiding them in the kitchen.
She loved every one of you too.
