Angela J. Gordon, 57, of Marengo, passed away peacefully on June 15, 2026, surrounded by her loving family.
Angela was born on September 4, 1968, the daughter of Steven and Sharon Mabie.
Angela was full of life and always took charge with confidence and determination. Organized and capable, she had a remarkable ability to accomplish anything she set her mind to. She enjoyed staying active and participated in many 5K races throughout the years.

Angela was also an amazing dog mom who adored her four-legged companions.
Above all, Angela's greatest joy was her family. She was a devoted wife and married the love of her life Chris Gordon. She was also a mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, and friend whose kindness, strength, and love touched everyone who knew her. Her presence will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
Angela is survived by her husband, Chris Gordon; her children, Justin Sowers (Taylor Pinter), Christopher Phillips, and Kylie “Jack” Gordon; her beloved granddaughter, Hazel; her stepfather, Ron Davidson; her sister, Veronica Dietzig (Cordel); and Terri Mabie (wife of Steven) and also her in-laws, Ron and Bonnie Jones.
