How fortunate I was to have known Audrey Squires. She was my 'Ma", and always will be.

She was a person not to be forgotten by those she met. Her compassion for others can easily be summed up in the care she gave to her beloved mother and all the others she cared for through her job with home health care.

She will be greatly missed, but she is reflected in those lives she touched in so many ways, especially in the lives of her children, and grandchildren, and all the strays she picked up along the way.

Sometimes angels dwell among us and our eyes and minds don't see what our hearts know until they leave us. And they appear in many forms, mothers and daughters, strong enough to bear great burdens with grace, pluck and love, even when the love increases the pain because it signals a connection that endures all things. I will miss you, even while I give thanks that you live on in the daughter who carries your light.

The first time I met Audrey I felt like i had known her forever. What a wonderfully twisted sense of life and humor she had and passed to at least one of her daughters (Mickie). Though our meetings were brief and I only had the privilege of meeting her twice she made me feel like family. God Bless those who loved and were loved by her. May her memory be honored and her impact on your life cherished.

I knew Audrey through her web journal for much too short a time. She displayed terrific courage, had a great sense of humor, had a knack for always finding something to feel positive about and showed an appreciation for everything she had, which practically sums up the traits that all of us should aspire to.

I met Audrey online through her daughter, Netta. Although we were friends for just a few years, I loved her dearly. She was kind enough to share with me her thoughts, her fiction, her humour, her love for life and her time, and I will miss her. Peace, love n light, my friend.
