Angeline Dorothy Petelin

Angeline Dorothy "Angie" Petelin (Sebel), 95, of Kansas City, Kansas went to be with the Lord on Thursday, November 17, 2016, at Olathe Hospice House with her family by her side. The visitation will be at 5pm on Friday, November 25, followed by a 6:30pm Rosary at Christ the King Parish in Kansas City, KS. Funeral services and mass will be at 10am on Saturday, November 26 at Christ the King Parish with Father Roger officiating. The burial will follow at Mount Calvary Cemetery.
Angie was born on March 7, 1921 to the late Ernest and Margaret Sebel. She spent her childhood in Bethel (now Kansas City), KS and was a graduate of Bishop Ward High School where she met her late husband, John J. Petelin Jr. John and Angie were married at St. John the Baptist on June 20, 1942 and then became charter members of the Christ the King Parish. Angie was a life-long resident of Kansas City, Kansas, barring a brief period when she and John relocated to Mobile, Alabama during World War II. Throughout the years, Angie remained active in numerous church, social, and civic organizations, like Go-Getters and the Democratic Club.
After what would have been a tragic accident for nearly anyone else her age earlier this summer, Angie spent time at Aberdeen Village in Olathe, KS, refusing to listen to doctors who told her she would never walk again (she did!). By no surprise to those who knew her well, the other residents and staff at Aberdeen were quickly charmed by Angies kindness, and impressed by her positive, determined attitude.
Angie was a true servant of God, never hesitating to help a family member, neighbor, or stranger in need. She always found the good in others and the beauty in all of Gods creations, touching countless lives and lighting up every room with her warm smile. Theres nothing Angie loved more than serving others, showering her grandchildren with love, and a enjoying a strong cup of coffee with a slice of povitica. She lived life to the fullest, loving God with her heart, mind, and soul.
Angie is preceded in death by her parents, her husband, and youngest sister, Ruby Scanlon.
She is survived by a sister, Margaret Bennetzen (of Houston, TX); 3 sons, John III (Jan), Timothy, and James; and 5 grandchildren, Matthew, Holly, Amanda, Andrew, and Johnathan.
The Petelin family wishes to extend our sincere thanks to the doctors and staff at KU Med, Shawnee Mission Medical Center, Aberdeen Village, Olathe Hospice House, Christ the King, and the many family and friends who have been praying for Angie these past few months. In lieu of flowers, please send donations in Angies name to St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital.
