I have to say I am feeling really bummed out today. I received some very bad news that an ex co-worker friend had been tragically killed in a head on collison last week. My friend was a lady named Angela, who I had the pleasure of working with at Polk Audio for a decade. Angie worked in the sales and marketing department at Polk and some of you may have had the pleasure of dealing with her. She had a very vibrant personality and was a very caring person. Certainly once you knew her you would never forget her. It is at a time like this that makes you realize that George, Matthew and Sandy (the Polk founders) created more than a company. I know several other members of the Polk family have contacted me today and we are all still very shocked and deeply saddened.

When I first started to work for Polk, Angie was my cube mate, along with Chet and Dave we were the CS department. She was warm, friendly, smart and beautiful, inside and out.
A sad day for the Polk Family, that's for sure.

I know how you feel...

About 25 years ago I, too, worked for a family atmosphere company, and lost a contemporary friend and co-worker in a head-on on Galveston Island.

My sincere condolences to the entire Polk family...

I've met and very briefly knew her, and knowing how the HQ family works up there....know it's not an easy task to wake up to. My condolences to Polk and her efforts will live on thru the ppl and company she worked so hard for.

Angie was 44. WAY, WAY too young.Thank you for replying nap. Definitely too young. While this is tragic, I sure hope there is no young children involved, I would hope no young children are loosing their precious mom as that would so sad....

Condolences to all of you! That is 'young', far too young! On the positive side it's nice to 'remember' the good times and to hear how Polk is 'family' too. That's rare in today's environment.

So sorry to hear that Nap. :frown: Regardless of age, the unexpected passings are that much worse. But her age makes it even less digestible...

Thoughts with her and her family during this difficult time.
