Obituary

Angela "Angie" Kay Burroughs, a beloved daughter, mother, and grandmother, passed away peacefully at her home on Sunday, April 12, 2026. Born on April 5, 1971, in Rock Island, Illinois, the daughter of Larry and Carol (Noble) Boeken, Angie was known for her unwavering devotion to her family.

Angie graduated from Rockridge High School in 1989. She was deeply committed to her career at Royal Neighbors of America, where she dedicated over 30+ years of her life. She had a strong work ethic, loyalty, and passion that she extended into all aspects of her life. She built lasting relationships with colleagues who became like extended family. She took pride in her work and the impact she made, carrying herself with integrity, kindness, and dedication throughout her many years of service.

From an early age, Angie cherished the connections she made with those around her. Her family was everything to her, and her life was a testament to the love and joy she found in their company. She had a special fondness for shopping and outings with friends, always delighting in being surrounded by people she cared for deeply. She found her greatest joy in being present for the moments that mattered most, always putting her loved ones before herself.

Angie is survived by her devoted parents, Larry C. and Carol L. (Noble) Boeken, who supported her throughout her life. She was a proud mother to her daughters, Shelby (Atticus) Garrison and Haley (Jeremiah Kirby) Burroughs; and grandmother of Jace, and another grandbaby on the way. She is also loving remembered by her brothers Lance (Christy) Boeken, Jason (Victoria) Boeken; her nephew and several nieces; and many aunts, uncles and cousins.She is preceded in death my her maternal and paternal grandparents, several uncles and aunts.

Friends and family are invited to pay their respects at the visitation held on Friday, April 17, 2026, from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM at the Wheelan-Pressly Funeral Home and Crematory Milan, located at 201 4th Ave E, Milan, IL 61264. This occasion offers a time to celebrate the meaningful impact she made on those around her. Memorials may be made in care of her family. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.

Angie cherished the connections she made with those around her. Her family was everything to her, and her life was a testament to the love and joy she found in their company. What drew Angie to any room, any outing, any occasion was never the event itself but the people that she was sharing her time with. She had a gift for showing up fully for the ones she loved, finding her greatest happiness simply in being present with them.
