    2. [S429] Legacy Remembers, Conrad, Angela Lynn (Hamlin).
      Angela Lynn Conrad (née Hamlin), born on September 16, 1962, in Burien, Washington, the second daughter of Robert E. Hamlin Jr. and Cecelia J. Hamlin, passed away on June 11, 2025, in Shoreline, Washington, after a brief battle with cancer.

      Angela lived a life marked by dedication, compassion, and unwavering love for those around her. She was one of a kind, big-hearted, fiercely protective, and deeply devoted to her family, friends, and fur babies. Her warmth and joy touched everyone fortunate enough to know her.

      Angela enjoyed hiking and visiting National Parks with her husband, Royce. She loved cheering for the Seahawks and Mariners and never met a dog or cat she didn't want to bring home, especially her beloved dog, Tyler Lockett.

      Angela devoted nearly 45 years to a career in the insurance industry, serving as a Personal Lines Underwriter, Client Associate, and most recently as a Personal Insurance Account Manager. Her commitment to her work was evident in the tireless service she provided to her clients and the deep appreciation she held for her many colleagues. Angela's professional life was not just about business; it was about building relationships and making a difference in the lives of others.

      Angela is survived by her husband, Royce Conrad; her sisters Christine Hamlin, Marguerite Studer (Kevin Studer), and Geri Scott; her sister-in-law Darcelle Devereaux (David Yao); her nephews Trevor Scott (Ellyn Marder), Spencer Scott (Lauren Scott), and Samuel Studer; her nieces Lindsey Scott, Molly Studer, and Emily Devereaux-Yao (Daniel Davenport); and her great niece Parker Scott. She was preceded in death by her mother, father, mother-in-law, and father-in-law.

      Angela's memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew her. May her legacy of kindness and love continue to inspire those she leaves behind.

      A Funeral Mass will be held on July 1, 2025, at 11:00 AM at St. Mark's Catholic Church, 18033 15th Pl. N.E., Shoreline, WA 98155. A burial will follow at 1:00 PM at Holy Rood Catholic Cemetery, 205 NE 205th St., Shoreline, WA 98155.

      In lieu of flowers, please make donations to St. Mark's Catholic Classical School, Shoreline, WA.
