At the age of 93, Audrey Agnes (Milley) Evans Wright peacefully left this world for her Heavenly home, leaving behind a legacy of compassion, strength and unwavering devotion to her family. She was a beloved Daughter, Wife, Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother.

There she will be greeted by her husband Joseph Evans, daughters Nedra (Evans) Cioffi and Deborah (Evans) Millar. She will also be greeted by her loving parents William Milley and Rosanna Mae (Kinslow) Milley, her brothers George Ernest Milley, George William Milley, Leonard Milley and William Milley, her sister Naomi (Milley) Wadden.

What a celebration it will be!

She was an amazing woman - always putting the needs and comfort of other people before her own, and she was such a witty and funny conversationalist. Born and raised in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, Canada, she grew up with a heart already inclined towards service. When her mother needed her most, she put aside her own schooling to care for her younger siblings, embodying her selfless spirit that would define her entire life. Decades later, while caring for her husband during his illness with Alzheimer's, she quietly accomplished a personal goal and milestone by earning her GED – a reflection of her determination and resilience.

Since the passing of her beloved husband in 2007, she was blessed to find love and companionship once again with David Ivan Wright, with whom she shared warmth and comfort in he later years.

More than anything, she was a grandmother. Her happiest role was caring for and guiding her grandchildren, teaching them lessons big and small – from kindness and patience to the simple joys of life with a strong influence of love. She gave generously of her time, her love, and her wisdom, always putting the comfort and well-being of others before her own.

She will be remembered not only for her sacrifices but also for her strength, her guidance, and her love that lives on through her family. Her life was long and full. Throughout her life she was devoted to her family and church service. Converting to the Mormon religion in 1957, mom and dad were part of the founding families of the Foxboro Branch, in Foxboro Massachusetts, establishing a strong foundation of religion and dedication to service that is still strong in the family today.

She leaves behind: sister Mary Newell, brother Albert Milley (Jade), Ivan Wright (2nd husband), Orlando Cioffi (husband of daughter Nedra), Greg Millar & Linda (husband of daughter Deborah) , daughter Sandra Evans (Dan Stewart), sons William Evans (Charlene), and Gordon Evans (Donna), seventeen Grand Children and forty-one Great-Grandchildren – a living legacy of love that will carry her spirit forward for generations to come.

17 Grandchildren: Tyler Evans (Courtney), Catherine Evans, Corey Evans (Crystal), Kyle Evans, Elyse Cioffi, Alexandra Taylor (Jessie), Payton Cioffi, Nicholas Cioffi (Sydney), Evan Millar (Brooke), Boz Millar (Maegan), Ray Millar (Olivia), Luke Millar (Lisa), Sam Millar (Victoria), Hannah Millar, Jessica Martinson (Jon Teva), Audrey Duran (Julio), Austin Evans (Natasha)

41 Great-Grandchildren: Mason Evans (Tyler/Courtney), Owen Evans (Tyler/Courtney), Hunter Evans (Catherine/John), Kyra Evans (Kyle), Ethan Evans (Corey), Alayna Evans (Corey), Brody Evans (Corey), Olivia Noyes (Elyse), Baby Arriving in March Cioffi (Nicholas/Sydney), Anabel Taylor (Alexandra/Jessie), Natalie Taylor (Alexandra/Jessie), McKenzie Millar (Evan/Brooke), Brynn Millar (Evan/Brooke), Max Millar (Evan/Brooke), Drew Millar (Evan/Brooke), Elyette Millar (Boz/Maegan), Jack Millar (Boz/Maegan), Charlotte Millar (Boz/Maeghan), Audrey Millar (Boz/Maeghan), Steven Millar (Boz/Maeghan), Maddie Millar (Luke/Lisa), Claire Millar (Luke/Lisa), Annalise Millar (Luke/Lisa), Carolyn Millar (Luke/Lisa), Jacob Millar (Luke/Lisa), Henry Millar (Ray/Olivia), Eleanor Millar (Ray/Olivia), James Millar (Ray/Olivia), Huston Millar (Sam/Victoria), Cade Millar (Sam/Victoria), Teva Martinson (Jessica/ Jon Teva), Angie Martinson (Jessica/Jon Teva), Sophia Martinson (Jessica/Jon Teva), Jesse Martinson (Jessica/ Jon Teva), Emma Duran (Audrey/ Julio), Izabella Duran (Audrey/Julio), Amaru Duran (Audrey/ Julio), Gian Carlos Evans (Austin/ Natasha), Lillian Evans (Austin/ Natasha), Austin Evans (Austin/Natsha)
