reminds us that angels are

Evangeline Madonna Volk

was born on December 4,

1936 to Stephen and

Veronica (Adam) Volk in

Drake, ND. Angie was the

oldest of 11 children and

upon completion of 8th

grade she took on the

great responsibility of

helping to support her

family and care for her

younger siblings. On Oc-

tober 3, 1955 Angie was

united in marriage to

Clarence Blonigen. Over

the years, Clarence’s job

took them many different

places and they made

each one their home for a

short time. Angie held a

variety of jobs throughout

her life, but none as im-

portant as that of mother

to her children Mary Kay

& Dale. Angie’s children,

grandchildren and great

grandchildren were truly

the light of her life. She

imparted upon them the

wisdom and lessons only

the best of mothers and

grandmothers can share

and loved them beyond

any measure. Those who

knew Angie knew her as a

woman of strength and

immense faith. Her love

for the Lord surpassed

everything and it was her

most fervent prayer that

her family know and love

Jesus as she did. Angie

was a longtime member of

St. Cecelia’s parish in

Harvey, ND and was

currently a faithful

member of Sacred Heart

Catholic Church. Angie

was generous and giving,

always willing to share

her time and talents

through her extensive

volunteer work. She could

always be found fixing

hair at the nursing home,

running the hospital cof-

fee cart or answering the

call whenever something

was needed at her home

parish. Angie will be dee-

ply missed by her

daughter & son in law-

sica) Nelson, Erin (Jeffrey)
