Angela Mae Humble passed away on Monday, March 13, 2017, at the age of 76 at her home in Roswell. She will lie in state 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Angie was born in Leedey, OK on July 20, 1940, to Frank Griffin Taylor and Icie Lavenie Snell Taylor, both deceased. She graduated from Leedey High School and then moved to Roswell where she met and married the love of her life, Donald “Don” R. Humble, on August 7, 1958. They raised their three children, Doneta, Debbie, and Keith, on the family farm. Angie spent the summers canning and freezing the large quantities of vegetables they raised until there was no space left in the freezer or on the pantry shelves, and made homemade ice cream every weekend. She spent countless hours at the sewing machine making matching dresses for the girls and coordinating shirts for Keith.
Angie was a stay-at-home wife and mother until she went to work in the banking industry in November, 1971. She started her 41-1/2 year banking career as a teller at Roswell State Bank. Over the years, she worked in various capacities at financial institutions, including First National Bank of Roswell, United New Mexico Bank, Moncor, Norwest, First Federal Savings Bank, and First American Bank, from which she retired in February, 2013. Her love of people and taking care of “her customers” made her work more than just a job – her customers became her friends and second family, and she loved taking care of them. She looked forward to seeing these special people, and they brought an immense amount of joy to her life.
Angie loved everyone. She always had a warm smile and gave great big hugs, whether it was a first time meeting or seeing someone she had known for years. She even converted some non-huggers into huggers over the years.
She had a special place in her heart for children, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She did her best never to miss a ballgame, a school program, or any of their other activities, and was their biggest fan.
