Angela was born in Paterson, New Jersey on December 23rd, 1949. She was a colorful spirit and loved life.

She began her career in the medical field in 1968 when she moved to Los Angeles, California. She was an Operating Room Nurse at Midway Hospital and after 10 years she transferred to Huntington Ambulatory Surgery Center in Pasadena when she succumbed. Angela was well a well-known nurse and was tremendously loved.

Angela would always go to work in heels and makeup then change into her scrubs for the rest of the day. She loved animals, especially cats and taking care of everyone that she came across.

Angela leaves behind her two daughters, Natasha Ashanti Clarke and Jasmine Patrice Hilliard; her sister Edwina Cotton; her brother Edward Cotton; along with a host of nephews, cousins and many friends grieving.

Angela is finally at rest. Goodbye, for now, see you later. I love you.

Your favorite sister, Edwina.
