Audrey Dougherty Obituary

Audrey (Derryberry)
Dougherty
3/19/1970 - 11/30/2014


Our darling daughter Audrey passed away at home, Sunday, November 30, 2014 after losing her battle with cancer. Audrey was born in Oklahoma City, raised in Auburn and graduated Valedictorian of her 1987 Chana High class. She was an outgoing person with a great sense of humor. Audrey made many friends over the years while working at various local restaurants and businesses. She especially enjoyed her past ten years working at Auburn Jewelry & Loan.
She is survived by her loving family, son Ace Dougherty of Colfax, her parents Ron and Carol Derryberry of Auburn, her brother Will, his wife Michelle and nieces Aria and Ruby of Roseville.
She also leaves behind her beloved Ron Solomon and family, as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. She will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
A private memorial service is being held at Lassila Chapel.

Please know how sorry we are to hear about Audrey's passing, when we would come into the store she always seemed to be doing great and had a smile on her face every time. My heart goes out to her son.It's not going to be the same not seeing her drive through the complex where we lived on Oakridge Drive in Colfax. R.I.P. Audrey.

I thought you were awesome the day I met you freshman year at Placer. You are the coolest rocker chick I've ever known. The world will not be the same without you.

God has taken another Angel home. I truly enjoyed and had some of the best times of my life with Audrey. Any person who had the chance to know her was blessed. We dates in high school and a few years afterwards and shared quite a few experiences together. Audrey was a very special person and will be forever remembered as she was in my life. Thank you for all the great memories.
