LINDGREN JULY 8, 2003 Hugo A. Lindgren died July 8, 2003- in Ft. Myers, at the age of 100. He was a longtime resident of Jamestown, but lived full-time In Florida since 1991. Mr.

Lindgren was born in 1902 in the Swedish farming village of Nashult. His father was a blacksmith and Mr. Lindgren was working in his shop by age 9. At 19, he decided to leave Sweden for the United States, and made his way to Jamestown, where he had an aunt and uncle. He worked first In a furniture factory, but soon found employment in a metal plant, where felt more comfortable.

Just 6 years after he arrived in the country, he founded Exel Metal Company, with a group of partners. It started with 4 employees, but quickly grew to more than 100. In 1943, he started his own company, Jamestown Metal Products, which specialized In making cabinets for hospitals and kitchens. During the post-war rebuilding of many American hospitals, official architectural specifications required 'a level of quality at least equal to that of Jamestown Metal When the White House was refurbished in 1948 under the Truman administration, Jamestown Metal Products won the contract to Install cabinets in the kitchen. More than anything, though, Mr.

Lindgren took pride In the number of people he was able to employ, which at Its peak was about 200. Mr. Lindgren sold his company in 1962, but returned a few years later to help finance the purchase of the company by its employees, one of the first deals of its kind. Meanwhile, he was turning his attention to real estate in Florida. He bought up property pn then-obscure Island called Sanlbel in the Gulf of Mexico, then paid for the feasibility and engineering studies that persuaded Lee County officials to build a causeway that connected the island to the mainland.

Today, Sanibel is one of Florida's most beautiful and successful resort areas, and the first road off the causeway Is called Lindgren Boulevard. For the next 20 years, Mr. Lindgren split his time between Florida and Jamestown. Among other things, he was a major benefactor of Lutheran Social Services, and underwrote the construction of an apartment complex that enables senior citizens to receive care but still live independently. He and his wife of 60 years, Louise, spent their last years in Jamestown in the complex that bears their name.

CARMINE ANGELOTTI JULY 3, 2003 Carmine Angelotti, writer and inventor, beloved son, husband, brother, father, grandfather, uncle and friend to many, passed away in Cape Coral Hospital on July 3, 2003 of cancer. Son of Donato and Filomena (DeCandla) Angelotti, he was born in Montclair, New Jersey Sept. 16, 1934. While a young man, Carmine traveled throughout North America working a variety of lobs, including a lumberjack, circus roustabout and farmhand, to name a few.

Each of these experiences enriched his philosophical beliefs and creative mind. He was grateful for every day. Carmine attended Cornell and Columbia Universities, earning a B.S. in psychology. He did graduate work at the University of Scranton before becoming a newspaper reporter, editor, and publisher In New York and New Jersey.

He worked In public relations for New York Telephone for over 20 years, developing many lifelong friendships. During this time, he was also a speech writer for several Albany area politicians. He was the voice and mind of the robot, ISAC, used to introduce robotics to the general public; he wrote and acted In a commercial to promote the metric, system and he was the composer of a song about the dangers of nuclear power, 'We all live in Pennsylvania: The Har-risbuerger (Geh Geh) Blues', after the 3 mile Island incident. He read widely and wrote prolif Ically a lover of language and words. He worked for many years on a book of mnemonics, but his passion was the research and compilation of all things Italian, which he hoped to publish In a multi-volume reference.

Above all, Carmine was a devoted husband and father. He was predeceased by his wife and best friend of 38 years, Judy (Hutchinson) Angelotti, who passed away in September and his sister, Marie who died late last year. He is survived by his seven children, Nadine of Albany, New York, Marietta (Raymond Parsons) of Gainesville, Donato of Cape Coral, Mark of North Tonawanda, New York, Victoria of Cape Coral, Maena Volgt (Michael) of Gainesville, Carmine Luca (Chris) of Davenport, his sister Delia Dowd of Feura Bush, New York; and grandsons Joseph Whitney Angelotti and Sean Timothy Angelotti Green, both of Albany, New York; his dear friends Jack and Anne Gaffney, and many other extended family members and friends. Our father was born with the temperament of a philosopher, often urging us to emulate the Ideals of Marcus Aurellus, who wrote, 'Every moment think steadily as a Roman and as a man to do what you have In hand with perfect and simple dignity, and kindliness, and freedom and lustlce and to give yourself relief from ail other thoughts. And you will give yourself relief If you do every act of your life as If It were the On Saturday, July 12, a private remembrance will take place within view of the Sanl-bel Lighthouse where Carmine's ashes will loin his love Judy at sea.
