Angeline or Angie as her friends called her was the middle child of eleven children. A child of the Great Depression and teenager of WWII. It was there that she found a love of history and reading, which she carried her whole life. The 92 years between were filled with family, multiple homes and residences, and her never-ending love of God and family.
In 1951 she married Robert Duane Zent in Mandan, N D. They later divorced. Their children are: Susan (Leslie), John (Jane), Robert (Becky), Dewey, Lee (Michelle) and Carole (Brad).

Angie was a great home cook and baker. She poured her love into her baked goods, making everything from elaborate cakes, perfectly baked pies, and specialty cookies. She was especially well known for her Angel Food Cake, Cinnamon Rolls, and Date Pinwheels. She also passed along many German noodle dishes and soups that walk her children down memory lane every time they are made or mentioned: Chicken Liver Dumping Soup, Kase Knipp, Ram-noodle, and German Sausage. Having grown up during the Great Depression, Angie was frugal and resourceful. She didn't waste a thing and maintained a "can-do" attitude even in trying circumstances. She was grateful for what she had and cared more about others than herself. Later in life she worked in the food industry and was a loving caregiver to family and friends. She was a practicing Catholic, a member of St Patrick's Parish for forty years and supported various Catholic charities with her time, talents and finances.
