Who is Angela Glover? Biography, Wiki
Angela Glover was a British charity that was swept away while rescuing her dogs during the Tonga tsunami. His body has been found, his family announced on Monday.
Ms. Glover was separated from her husband James on Saturday when a tsunami wave triggered by a volcanic eruption hit them outside their home in the Tongan capital Nuku’alofa.
Angela Glover’s Age
Her current age was 50 years.
Angela Glover’s Body Found
His brother says the body of a British woman who was swept away by the tsunami was found in Tonga.
Nick Eleni told broadcasters the family was “devastated” after Angela Glover died trying to save her dogs.
The first known fatality in the disaster was caused by an underwater volcano erupting, which sent a tsunami to the Pacific island nation.
However, communications were badly damaged, making it difficult to ascertain the extent of the destruction.
The Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano, which erupted on Saturday, is about 65 kilometers north of the Tongan capital Nuku’alofa, where Angela and her husband James found their home.
Outside her mother’s home in Hove, Eleini said she knew her husband had found Angela’s body.
Angela Glover’s Family
He said Angela, 50, who was born in Brighton, has lived in Tonga since she married James and they have been “loved by locals and ex-pats alike”.
“Angela and James loved their life in Tonga and they loved the people of Tonga. In particular, they loved the Tongan love of Tongan family and culture,” he said.
Eleini said her sister was “a beautiful woman” who would “walk into a room and illuminate it with her presence.”
“Angela was the heart of our family, she was the emotional heart of our family,” he said. “I will miss her and think of her every day until the day I die. My mom is devastated right now, she’s absolutely devastated.”
After getting married and moving to Tonga in 2015, James began running a tattoo parlor called Happy Sailor, which employed and trained Tongans while Angela founded the Tongan Animal Welfare Society, Eleini said.
She added that she has “a deep love for dogs” and that her organization sheltered and rehabilitated stray animals before attempting to find them homes.
“The uglier the dog, the more he loved it. She loved them all, she devoted herself completely to them.”
He had worked in advertising in London before starting a new life in the South Pacific.
