After two years, Angelo returned to Birmingham, eventually going into the restaurant business with his brother George Sarris. In 1989, he became owner of Sarris Restaurant and continued as the owner/operator with his wife until his death.
Angelo was an avid bowler in his youth and had a genuine love for raising and training German Shepherds throughout his life. He was a devoted husband and grandfather, a loving brother and uncle, and a compassionate and generous friend.
