Tribute to Anjelia Pelay
The year began with a major loss
to the New Jersey music commu-
nity when Anjelia Pelay died on
January 10 - less than two weeks
after turning 34. Born Angela
Marie Chiappelli, she lived in
Toms River for most of her life but
moved out to California to pursue
dreams of music and acting.
NJ STAGE - ISSUE 67
The news came on the night she
was supposed to perform at The
Stone Pony with Tommy Strazza.
She was a hard working artist
from her own shows to those at
casinos and as part of Glen Burt-
nik’s extravaganzas. And she did
it all while battling Lupus, an in-
curable disease.
