Angela was born February 25, 1939 in Marcus, Iowa, the daughter of Mathias and Gladys (Roethler) Geisler.  She graduated from Liberty High School and then attended business school.  Angela married James Kuehn in 1959.  To this union, five children were born.  The couple later divorced. 

Angela worked as a secretary for several commission firms in the Sioux City Stockyards for 20 years, until its closing and then began her career at LiteForm in August of 1996 as a dealer coordinator.  Angela worked at LiteForm until her “retirement”, but continued to work helping fill in where needed up until two weeks before her passing. 

Family was everything to Angela, and she loved spending time with her grandchildren, cooking for the big family gatherings, and quilting for each family member.  She enjoyed her flowers and yardwork, and every night would work on crossword puzzles, Sudoku, and Solitaire.  Angela was a member of the ABWA and the Stocketts.  A wonderful woman has gone to Heaven, and will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
