I have not experienced the kind of love that Audrey gave me except from my own Mom. Audrey was such a huge part of my life, not just my aunt but truely the best God mother any person could wish for. I loved her with my whole heart, and I miss her more than words can say! It has been 5 years since she entered eternal life with the Lord above, but I still mourn as if it was yesterday. I would give anything for one more of her warm hugs. I know she is in a better place and she is happy, but my selfish side wants her here with me! The special moments that she is not here for are almost unbearable. As long as I live a piece of my heart will be missing. I will love you forever and always Audrey, and you are missed EVERY DAY!

I had worked with Audrey many many years ago back at the Fort. After quitting she came back and I had a change to see her after so many years I hadn't seen her. She came over to my house about 7-8 years ago and at that time I dyed her hair and we had a very special time talking about old times. She was a very special lady. My condolences and prayers go out to all her family and friends. She will certainly be missed.

My special moments with Audry were the best kind between two women. The chuckles we recieved from people because of Our Amazing Talent of "Look-a-Like." Oh, the giggles we shared with a twinkle in our eyes. Audry and I had created a special bond of connection. I will greatly miss our conversations at family functions, her warm smile and genuine heart.

To the Family... My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Theresa Dreier
