Angie’s story captures the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of compassion and forgiveness. Abandoned and alone with newborn twins, Angie didn’t succumb to bitterness. Instead, she found strength in her love for her children, seizing every opportunity to build a better life for them. The kindness of a stranger—the nun who offered her shelter on that rainy night—became a turning point, showing that even in our darkest moments, small acts of generosity can illuminate a new path.
Despite the hurt and betrayal she endured, Angie chose forgiveness over resentment when Jake reappeared in her life. By offering him a second chance, she demonstrated a rare strength and wisdom, reminding us that forgiveness is as much about self-healing as it is about extending grace to others. Angie’s journey from heartbreak to prosperity, and her unwavering compassion, exemplify how true strength often lies in an open heart.
This story shows us that every setback can be the foundation for new beginnings, and that while forgiveness may not erase past pain, it can bring peace and light back into our lives.
Lisa Marie Presley had a deeply emotional reason for keeping her son Benjamin’s body on dry ice after his passing.
After her son Benjamin passed away, Lisa Marie Presley kept his body on dry ice for two months for a very heartbreaking reason. Just under four years had gone since the terrible suicide death of her son Benjamin Keough, when Lisa Marie, 54, passed away in January 2023.
Lisa Marie, the sole child of Elvis Presley, departed from her twin children, Harper and Finley Lockwood, who are 16 years old, and her daughter Riley Keough, who is a star of Daisy Jones & The Six. Riley finished a book she had written, From Here to the Great Unknown, and it was published on October 8 following her death.
In her memoir, Lisa Marie discussed Benjamin’s sudden passing in 2020 and disclosed that she had held his body for two months before burying him in a casita bedroom. As she had explained to her father, Elvis Presley, “there is no law in California that requires someone to be buried immediately,” and she felt it was important to give Benjamin the time she needed to say goodbye.
Lisa Marie was just nine years old when Elvis passed away, so having his body at home and being able to visit and talk with him had been consoling. Throughout that time, she kept Benjamin’s remains at 55 degrees while debating whether to bury him in Graceland or Hawaii.
She acknowledged in the biography, “I became so accustomed to him being there, taking care of him… I was grateful that I could continue to raise him until I was ready to say goodbye, even if it was only for a short while longer.
