We remember you as a man of honor, faith, integrity and humor. You had such a quick wit and always made everyone laugh and feel welcome in your presence. You loved your family and treasured life with them and worked hard to provide a beautiful home. Angelo knew how to truly enjoy life. My favorite memory was at midnight in Las Vegas, as I was heading to my hotel and asked if Angelo wanted to share a cab to our hotel. He looked at me, laughed, and said, “ The night is still young”( from Lynn). We will dearly miss you and your incredible zest for life! God has you now with all the wonderful people who passed before you in this lifetime. You share a tender place in our hearts 💕 and your gregarious spirit will be remembered forever!!!The Bruckner Family
