Angela “Angie” Marie Mathison, 46, of Kalkaska passed away on August 30, 2017. She was born on September 7, 1970 in Detroit Michigan. Growing up in the Manistee lake area, she enjoyed boating and being with her many friends around the lake. After graduating from Kalkaska High School in 1988, Angie studied cosmetology in Traverse City, and became a hard working stylist who took great pride in her work.
