Welcome to the USO of Illinois Website.

In memory of a dear USO friend,
Angel Harvey

(Angel and her husband Paul, USO Gala)
We at the USO of Illinois were so saddened to learn of the loss of our dear friend, Angel Harvey. Angel has served on the USO of Illinois Board for many years and currently was serving as Vice Chair. Franklin A. Urbahns, Chairman of the USO of Illinois, expressed his sentiments: "Angel Harvey was a very special leader and friend to the USO.  There are not enough words to describe her incredible passion for life and her tremendous commitment to our organization to fulfill our mission in support of the men, women and families of the military. She will always remain in our hearts as the best of the best."

USO of Illinois wishes to extend our sincere condelescenes to Paul, Paul Jr. and the Harvey family. Angel will be terribly missed by our organization and community.
