Angela Felicisima Sanchez born April 4, 1927, into a family of eight brothers and sisters in Guayaquil, Ecuador, died Aug. 11, 2016. She opened a boutique called “Gilda” which gave birth to her legendary career as a successful businesswoman. She had the mind of an engineer and anything she set her mind to she accomplished.
She was able to calculate and measure anything that required handiwork and skill. She moved to California in the late 1960’s. She worked for over 30 years as a very skilled seamstress in local custom drapery shops. She sewed her own clothes and always dressed with class everywhere she went.
Since she never married or had children, she doted on and spoiled her nieces and nephews, while grooming them to be good people, with the command of a sergeant.
“She is loved and remembered by her family for all she gave of her bright spirit, knowledge, wisdom and love. Her legacy will live on in all those she touched in this life.”
Preceded in death by her parents, Jose Sanchez and Sergia Vargas, Angela is survived by her sister, Amada Accurso, nephew Chuck Accurso and his wife Noriko and son Vittorio, niece Denise Accurso and many relatives in Guayaquil, Ecuador.
