Amy was a long time friend from high school and college and beyond. I have good memories of meeting up and going shopping in Frederick and Hagerstown MD with her in the past few years. She was a wonderful friend and I will truly miss her. Words cannot describe the sadness I feel.

Dr. Angelo was a trend setter here in Fauquier County, adding the first elementary STEM club. She also initiated the first truly collaborative classroom - no small feat. She initiated Math Day, Technology Day, and was one of the first professionals to achieve National Board Certification and served as a mentor for those seeking the NBCE . She loved a word play and Mathematics. She will be sadly, sadly missed here. There is a blessing that she found a soulmate in Mr. Mark Settal.

I was very fortunate to meet and work with Amy as we both started our new jobs in Clarke County together. She loved her Boyce family and supported CCEF at every event - one of my favorite memories was of her wearing her Santa helper hat at our Holliday movie showing of Elf and laughing with all the Boyce families! She is missed by many ! Rest in peace

Amy grew up in our neighborhood and was a childhood friend of my sons. I am remembering many happy times from those years. To all who are missing her remember that death separates us for a time; Christ will reunite us forever.

I am so sorry to hear of Amy's death. She was dear to us and was near my son's age. Growing up she was so sweet. I am her Aunt Donna (Janet's sister). Wish we had been closer as time went on. Shocked to hear of her passing.

I enjoyed being "mathy" with Amy as she loved numbers like I do. We enjoyed much data in her time at Boyce Elementary. My condolences.

Holly Davis Borland left a message on April 5, 2016:
Amy and I learned to ski together at Mt Pleasant Ski Resort in Edinboro PA in 6th grade. We'd fall off of the ski lift and wallow around in the snow trying to get our skis back on. So many wonderful memories of those times. My parents took us to Wmsbg VA and VA beach one year. Not sure how we grew apart in college and especially after. I was in her wedding party even. Her death is so sorrowful. It's one thing to loose touch and think you might bump into each other again. It's another thing to realize that it will never now happen. I'm feeling too much to say more. Heartfelt condolences and God bless Amy.
