entire life in Galveston and was a beloved husband, father, grandfather
and great grandfather. He leaves many, many nieces, nephews, cousins,
extended family members and friends too numerous to count.

Galveston, and Louis and Tammy Montalbano, of Galveston; daughters,
Angela Kunz, of Galveston, Kathy and John MacLean, of Oak Leaf, Texas;

his wishes the services will be private but the family encourages

celebration of Angelo’s life.
In lieu of flowers the family asks that donations be made in Angelo’s name to the Galveston chapter of the VFW.
