Angela’s husband Craig Moody posted a lengthy message on Facebook expressing his feelings about his wife’s death. He began with, “Angela was deeply loved. Most of you did not know the demons she faced.”
Moody confessed, “The last seven years were filled with pain, and to be honest, I lost the woman I fell in love with at least six years ago.”
He revealed that his wife had suffered from opioid addiction for the past seven years. He expressed anger over the opioid pandemic and over-prescription, stating, “You stole her from me,” and conveyed the pain of addiction, saying, “I did everything in my power to help her, but ultimately she had to want recovery more herself.”
Immediately after the broadcast, Janelle shared on Instagram, “I have been thinking a lot about friendship at this stage of life. I feel deep gratitude for the friends who helped me during my darkest times,” paying tribute to her friend.
Angela is survived by her husband and three children, Nicholas, Taylor, Isaac, and three grandchildren, with a fourth grandchild on the way.
