Angela Renee Wallace, 35

Angela Renee Wallace, age 35, passed away Monday, July 19, 2021 at her residence. She was born at Sheridan Memorial Hospital in Sheridan, Wyo., on March 12, 1986. She was the daughter of Don and Kathy Wallace and the younger sister of David Wallace.

She was the "1986 Girl Scout Baby of the Year." She moved from Sheridan in 1999 and graduated from McQueen High School in Reno, Nev., in 2004. Angela was in the Gifted and Talented Education program from elementary school throughout high school.

After graduation, she continued her studies at the University of Nevada, Reno, earning multiple scholarships based on her high GPA and civic participation and volunteer activities. In 2010 she graduated with "High Distinction" from UNR with a degree in social work, and she worked in that field for a while before returning to her family and friends in Sheridan. She worked in various capacities, including four years as a social worker at Westview Health Care Center.

Angela then accepted a position in the Polson area, where she could be closer to her brother, David, his wife, Brandy, and their four children, Noah, Caleb, Naomi and Rebekah. Angela moved there with her kitties, Boo and Bear, whom she loved with all her heart.

In addition to helping people, she enjoyed reading her Bible and creating inspirational Christian greeting cards that she sold in a few local stores over the years as well as at craft fairs. She also enjoyed hiking in the beautiful Montana countryside and taking long bike rides. She was a young lady blessed with many talents and the love of her family, friends and kitties; but above all, she was loved by her Lord Jesus Christ.

She loved her Lord and is with Him now. We are counting on God's grace and healing to get us through this very sad time. Angela is survived by her parents, Kathy and Don; brother David, sister-in-law Brandy and their children; and many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Funeral services for Angela were to be held at 2 p.m. Wednesday, July 28, 2021 at the Four Square Church north of Polson, with visitation prior adn burial at Lakeview Cemetery following services. Memories and condolences may be sent to the family at www.lakefuneralhomeandcremation.com.
