But there was a time (a hugely idiotic time, to be sure) when Angela was just gathering the pieces of having been sacked and having attended a close family members burial, after which she was voted in to the board, and pretty much flat out said she didn't have the wherewithal to attend, if people couldn't see their way through to subsidise her to get to the board meeting. The whole thing didn't come to a head, because I personally (successfully, yay!) inspired a drive to donate money *earmarked* for the sole purpose of getting Angela to Paris. But come on!
This isn't true. I've never been sacked, and I had to pay my own ticket to Paris for that first Board meeting.

Thank you for reverting me. It pays to be precise, and I wasn't.
Nor accurate.
Should have said "lost her job" and "reimbursing Angelas costs for flying to Paris".
BTW, there is a book about US presidents biography, "in words of one syllable", I am proofreading for Project Gutenberg, at Distributed Proofreaders, which would make a splendid source for Simple English Wikipedia...
