Ruby Jean, Laurie, Wade, and families,

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you during this sad time. Uncle Audrey was a kind man who will be missed and remembered by many. Rest asure he is in a better place and not suffering. I will never forget the good times we had when hunting together, expecially when he helped me to get my deer hounds running. Just when I had given up them and thought they were not going to run, he said, just a little more time and patience is all you need!

A great man has left this earth. There are few people of Audrey's caliber still around. I don't think there are enough nice words to describe Audrey. I have fond memories of him as a child and an adult. He treated all people with respect that he came in contact with and always made you feel at home. I thank he and Ruby Jean for being such great friends to my family and for all they've done for us over the years. Our prayers go out to Ruby Jean, Laurie, Wade and the family during this time.
