Audrey CLEARIE Obituary
(nee Morwood-Clark)
June 30, 1954 - June 18, 2013
It is with overwhelming sadness that we announce the passing of our dear Audrey – beloved mother, daughter, sister, aunt, and valued friend, who passed away peacefully with loved ones at her side. She is predeceased by her mother, Marion and is survived by her children, Travis and Erin, father Frank, brother Brian, niece Laura, nephew David, lifelong friend Patricia, as well as many cousins and dear friends. Audrey dedicated her life to compassionately caring for others, working as a geriatric nurse, and was an amazing mother to her children. She had a passion for adventures and the outdoors, and could often be found figure skating, hiking, skiing, or traveling the world. Audrey was a strong woman who will be remembered for her kindness, beautiful smile, infectious laugh, and incredible zest for life. She will be missed very much. We would like to thank the nursing staff of W2A at Eagle Ridge Hospital, 3 South and 6 North at Royal Columbian Hospital for their kindness and support. In lieu of flowers, we are encouraging people to honor Audrey by registering as an organ or blood donor. A celebration of Audrey's life will be announced at a later date.

As a member of BOC outdoor club, I met with Audrey on several hiking trips. I feel sad to know that she has left us unexpectedly. I still remember her passion to Dr.Seuss's book and movie, her kind offering for carpooling and her home-made salad that was shared on last years mountain baker trip.
She is a good role model to me for how life should and could be lived. And such inspiration will never die away.

It is with much sadness that I learned today of Audrey's passing. Audrey was one of my classmates at VGH School of Nursing (Class of '77-'80). What a wonderful gal she was - always smiling and laughing; finding humor and joy in life. I extend my deepest sympathies to her children Travis and Erin, her father and her many friends she left behind. God bless you Audrey, you will be missed and loved.

I went throuh nursing school with Audrey, then lived with her for several years after graduation. Lots of fun, laughter and good times. When I think of her it is always with a smile on her face. Through the years we exchanged Christmas cards updating each other on career, kids and travel. To Travis and Erin you were her pride and joy. I am so sorry for your loss.

Audrey - words fail to express how sad I am. I met you in 2006 and you and the rest of the BC skating gang adopted me as your competition mascot. Together we created amazing memories which I will cherish - Tallinn, Villard, Oberstdorf, skating fun, beer, tequila jello-shots and lots and lots of laughter. You were such a caring and good friend. I will miss you. Till we meet again xxx

Audrey - We will miss your smile at the Coquitlam Skating Club. Your kindness and support to me while I was President was much appreciated. My condolences to your family.

Audrey - we will all miss you. Your smilling face on the ice at Coquitlam Skating Club was an inspiration to all - young and old. Typical of a nurse, you were always there to volunteer and to help make an ongoing difference. You gave so ...much, and asked for little. Your children are your legacy, and they will continue to make you proud ... continue to guide them and to stay close to all of us. Sending my love to such a young and vibrant spirit - you define what we know as an Angel!

I was fortunate to meet Audrey in nursing school. She always had that smile that we have come to know, no matter what kind of a day she had. Her laughter was contagious and if there was any party, she was in for the adventure. In speaking with Twyla, who lived next door to Audrey in nursing school, she recollected her talent and creativity. Audrey sewed together small pieces of different colored carpet squares to get a rug for her floor in residence making her stipend go further. Like Joseph and his coat of many colors, Audrey was rich with love, both in what she gave and what she received. I will miss her terribly. She was a glass half full kinda gal! To Travis, Erin, her family and friends I share your grief. She was a classy lady. Love Kim
