The community of Flagstaff is mourning the loss of Angela Joy Moody, who entered eternal rest on October 1, 2025. Born on March 19, 1974, in Phoenix, Arizona, Angela was the beloved daughter of Jerry and Christine Sanchez. With her father’s work as a lineman, the family moved frequently throughout Utah, but Angela spent most of her childhood in St. George, where she formed cherished friendships through church and community life.
In 1989, the family relocated to Flagstaff, where Angela attended Flagstaff High School and graduated with the Class of 1992. Shortly after graduation, she spent several memorable months traveling through Europe with her best friend before returning home to begin her career at NEBS Printing. It was there that she met Craig, the love of her life. They married in 1996 and built a beautiful family together.
Above all, Angela was known for her boundless heart. She was the first to show up, to give, to care. Her presence made others feel valued, loved, and seen. She brought joy, laughter, and grace into every room and found deep peace in music, dancing, travel, and her frequent visits to Hawaii.
Angela is survived by her husband, Craig; her children, Nicholas (Amber), Taylor Reinoso (Garrett), and Isaac; grandchildren Mallory Jade, Presley Ann, and one on the way; her parents, Jerry and Christine; her grandmother, Gloria Castillo; her sisters, Sylvia Flores (Sal) and Elicia Sanchez (Jake); and her many nieces and nephews.
Her life was a testament to love, service, and unwavering kindness. She will be forever missed and forever cherished.
