We are so sad to hear of the loss to Angel's loved ones, especially his wife, and the loss to the greater Portland community. We need more good , caring males to teach our young people how to be good citizens. Coaching youth is an important job. I remember seeing Angel walking to Memorial Middle school when my sons were there.
