David Angell was born the youngest of three children to Mae Cooney Angell and Henry Angell on April 10th, 1946, in Providence, Rhode Island. David graduated from Providence College, where he later received an honorary doctorate degree. After graduation, David enlisted in the U.S. Army and served at the Pentagon.[/font]

Lynn Edwards was born on August 11, 1949 in Birmingham, Alabama, to Thomas and Marilyn Edwards. Lynn attended Auburn University which prepared her for an early career as a librarian. [/font]

David met Lynn on Cape Cod where he was working at the Eastward Ho Country Club and she was waitressing for the summer. They were married on August 14th, 1971 and settled in Providence.[/font]

Lynn worked as a librarian, and David became an insurance technical writer, which did little to challenge his creative talents. Finally, they agreed to take a chance on Hollywood. Lynn's librarian skills supported David through those lean and learning times in L.A. For five years David tried to break into television writing, and finally scored when his story for the Archie Bunker series was accepted. David's first big break came, however, when his "Old Flame" episode written for "Cheers" won an Emmy for Best Comedy Writing in a Series. [/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]This success propelled David into a very propitious relationship with David Lee and Peter Casey, and "Grubstreet Productions" was formed. Their first creation together was the very successful "Wings" series, and their second creation has been one of the most popular, Emmy Award-winning series in modern television, "Frasier."[/font]

David is survived by his brother, the Most Reverend Kenneth A. Angell, who is Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Burlington, Vermont; his sister Claire Miller and her husband Bernard of Stowe, Vermont; and their four children: Karen Brendli and her husband Philip; Ann Rice and her husband David; Stephen Miller and his wife Georgeann; and Kathleen Grinley and her husband Joseph. David also leaves behind ten grand nieces and nephews; and his very special partners David Lee and Peter Casey, who knew David so well as "a kind and gentle man with a quiet exterior that masked one of the sharpest comedy minds ever to write for television."[/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]
Lynn is survived by her mother, Marilyn Edwards; her brother, Dr. Thomas Edwards and his wife Rennie; a niece, Leslie Cameron and a nephew, Christopher Allen, all of Birmingham, Alabama. [/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]
Lynn and David were devoted, faith-based, spirit-filled partners in love and life. Theirs was a journey of joy, kindness, and gentleness, but it was a journey done too soon. [/font]
