My son was a student for many years at the Elmer Knopf Learning Center. While Bryan never had Audrey for speech therapy, we saw her smiling face and enthusiasm for her students. Audrey made a difference in so many lives - what a wonderful legacy. May your memories give you strength in the days ahead.

Audrey was a very dedicated employee. She was an excellent speech therapist and very interested in using technology with her students. I considered her a good friend and always enjoyed talking to her. Everyone will miss her but cherish the memories of her.

As a retired teacher of the GISD I was very saddened to learn of Audrey's death. She was a wonderful teacher and had great empathy for both her students and our staff. I always enjoyed talking to her at school. She will in my thoughts for a long time.

My favorite memory of Audrey is when she rode with me and my two boys to Minnesota to see her family. We drove from Flint through the U.P. and she knew of ,and wanted to stop at, every fabric store along Highway 2! We had a great time and she will really be missed.

I have wonderful memories of visiting Audrey with my mom Sue (her college roommate) and 3 sisters when we were little. One time we even showed up with my dad's entire chess team to sleep on the floor! She always had some craft for us to do, and sometimes a really cool Lego castle or something. The last time I saw her was too long ago - she came down to Detroit to see my choir's Messiah concert. My deepest condolences to the family.
