Our hearts are broken. Our beautiful sister, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great-grandmother, aunt and friend Angie has left us and is now watching over all of us from her heavenly home. She was welcomed by so many of her loved ones that she missed dearly — a very joyous celebration for all of them. We will all cherish the many loving memories we have of her. She left a mark on everyone she met and she will never be forgotten. Angie Klem passed away Friday, April 26, 2019 in Tooele, Utah.
