Angela Lastie-Morrell
as Nosy Rosy
Angela Lastie-Morrell is a native of New Orleans. At the tender age of ten, she realized that she had a passion for public speaking, speech and debate, as well as acting and dancing. She supposes that this passion was passed on to her due to her family name which is Lastie, a family composed of musicians, singers, and dancers. At the young age of 55, she discovered that it's not only healthy to share words of encouragement and knowledge, but it’s a must to make people smile and laugh. Every day she wears the title of a social worker. However, to have the honor to participate in such a well-written story is one of God’s blessing. Enjoy!
