My grannie will be missed by so many people. She was a very strong person in mind and spirit. I will cherish the memories I had of her and I when I was younger throughout my life and pass those memories to my children. I love you grannie, I will miss you.

With deepest sympathy to the family of Audrey. I knew her not by face, only by spirit - all because of a grand daughter who loved her so much!

I will always remember Aunt Audrey's generous spirit and giving nature. She helped me out so much many years ago, when I was living in Richmond, and I will never forget her kindness. She was a very grand lady.
