The last picture that I saw of her was a truly beautiful picture of her....there was a glowwwwww like no other.......

This post is all about Honor..........I will never be a part of tarnishing her name or anyone else name..........Big Ang was a reality television personality. She rose to fame after starring in the series Mob Wives. Big Ang’s uncle was a member of the notorious Genovese crime family and she has dated many Mob members and has managed several Mafia hangouts. Currently, she owns the Drunken Money bar in Staten Island, New York. Her own spin-off show Big Ang recently premiered on VH1. She also released a book entitled Bigger Is Better: Real Life Wisdom from the No-Drama Mama in September 2012. In 2015, doctors removed a lemon-sized tumor from her throat. After undergoing treatment for brain and throat cancer, doctors thought she had defeated the disease. However, it returned in Dec. 2015 and quickly advanced to stage 4. Sadly, Ang passed away on Feb. 18, 2016, surrounded by her family and friends.  She died from complications of lung and brain cancer after she contracted pneumonia, The New York Times reported, adding that she is survived by husband Neil Murphy, children Anthony D'Onofrio and Raquel D'Onofrio and six grandchildren.......Four private visitations for Big Ang will be held at a funeral home over the weekend, while the reality star will be honored Monday with a private funeral at the Basilica of Regina Pacis, a Catholic parish church in Brooklyn, E! News has learned.  She will be laid to rest at a private burial in Staten Island.

May her family find peace, love, encouragement with the help of God and He will place everyone around her family during this time to get to their next level of life......

Many Blessings and Love,
