Obituary For Angela Joy Fountain

Angela Joy Fountain (our “angel of joy”) passed from this life into eternal life on Saturday, August 13, 2022, in Greensboro, North Carolina. Angela was born on June 4, 1961, in Detroit, Michigan, the daughter of Daniel and Gussie (Ashley) McMillan, Jr. She is the second oldest of the “Fab Five'' and birthday twin to her sister Trina who was also born on June 4, one year later. Angela grew up in Detroit and attended St. Cecilia Catholic school, Winship Elementary, Ludington Middle School, and Cooley High School. As a child, Angela received speech therapy for a stutter. This challenge ignited her passion for words. In addition to studying Latin in high school, she pursued her degree in speech pathology at the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor, receiving her bachelor's from Wayne State University. Angela also earned a certificate in paralegal studies and a master's in management and human resources certification from Walsh College. Angela worked at Henry Ford Hospital, the City of Detroit and Beaumont Health during her career. Angela was a gifted writer and an avid reader who expressed her artistic talents in drawing. She enjoyed black and white movies in keeping with her classic vintage style. Angela was fascinated by the musical composition of symphony orchestras enjoying concerts with her friends. The "Martha Stewart" of the family, she was obsessed with organization. Angela was passionate about animals, especially horses and her much-beloved teacup terrier "Icee." The family knew Angela's humor well as she light-heartedly imitated phrases and expressions of her closest family members. She developed a desire to travel from childhood trips in the family station wagon, eventually traveling to her favorite place - Paris, France. Faith in the Lord, Jesus Christ, was the foundation of Angela's life. Raised in the Catholic church, she later joined Great Faith International Ministries (GFIM), where she was a member for more than twenty years. She excitedly volunteered in various capacities, serving with diligence and a spirit of excellence. While not in the five-fold ministry, Angela ministered to all those she encountered with her disarming smile, words of encouragement, prayer, and the Word of God. When asked how she exuded such grace and humility, she responded, "I asked God to help me love his people as much as He did." Angela was blessed with a son Percy D. Fountain, III, whom she shared with her former spouse Percy Fountain, II. She delighted in being a "Glam-Ma" to her two grandchildren, Angenique and Angelos, hosting elaborate tea parties, sleepovers and other adventures reminiscent of her childhood. She is survived by her parents, Daniel and Gussie McMillan, Jr., her son Percy D. Fountain III, siblings Melinda McMillan, Trina (Eric) Scott, Michael McMillan, and Sherry McMillan, nieces Sierra Scott and Aria (Conner) Cadle, grandchildren Angenique and Angelos Fountain, grandniece Furie Cadle and many cousins and dear friends.

Funeral will be held Monday, August 22, 2022 at 12pm Perry J. Brown Funeral Home Chapel. 11:30am Visitation. Burial will follow at Forest Lawn Cemetery 3910 Forest Lawn Dr. Greensboro, North Carolina. Service will be Live Stream at perryjbrownfuneralhome.com.

Angela was my college roommate for our Freshman and Sophomore years at The University of Michigan. We not only shared a dorm room, but we also shared the same first name. People on Michigan's campus affectionately referred to us as Angie B and Angie Mc. When we were away from campus we often hung out and spent time at each other's homes. Losing Angela is like losing a sister. Angela is gone, but she will never be forgotten.

To Percy Jr., Mr. and Mrs. McMillan, and the entire McMillan Family, blessings to you all! My son Caleb and I extended our prayers, love and condolences to you all. Angela was such a beautiful Woman of God, inside and out! Every time we greeted one another it was always with love, hugs and smiles. My son loved Angela and he called her "Nia Long". She often blessed him because she told me my son reminded her of her own son. I know she's in God's presence, smiling with that beautiful smile and rejoicing.

May God's peace be with you all.

To the McMillan & Fountain Family! Angela Represented well her natural and spiritual family and above all Our Heavenly Father! She represented well in temperament,demonstrating the fruits of the Spirit . She represented the Southern Belles...in her dress and lady like manner. She represented Faith going through with head up praising the Lord standing on the Word of GOD speaking the Word of GOD. The last time we were in conversation and in close proximity we were sharing family matters...how we love family and want the best and how we were waiting for some things to yet manifest. This was at the graduation rehearsal...At the actual banquet I had the pleasure of seeing Angela Receive award after award. This was truly symbolic of her Receiving her flowers.

Thank you Mr. and Mrs. McMillan for all you said done and lived before Angela that influenced her walk with GOD. GOD BLESS AND COMFORT YOU ALL! Sis.Angela Blackmon
