Childhood Christmas in Brantford. There were so many but I looked forward to each one with an excitement as if it was a first. Fish and chips wrapped in newspaper. (my only allowed junk food of the year) So greasy and smelled soooo good. All of us at the table at Grandma's house. Aunt Audrey asking me to say grace!!! Ultra sound moments. My Aunt is the only family member to see my baby still cookin in the belly. Thank you for being there! Crazy picnic at the beach. What a sport. Who else would agree to schlep a 18 month baby and two dogs on windy day for a sand filled hard boiled egg? Aunt Audrey successfully rocking and putting to sleep her 2nd nephew John James, for a wonderful 4 hour nap! She must have tired the poor baby out! She's a tough lady to keep up with!!

A few simple words to describe my wonderful Aunt Audrey...strong, passionate, kind, a loving mother, loves her desserts, too the point, positive spirited, a babe, a gentle grandmother, embraces life and has always found ways to stretch its "make it fun" potential almost to its breaking point! I admire my Aunt. I am proud of her, and I have always strived to be like the amazing woman she was. I miss you already! Your one and only Niece, Leah

Barry, Vicki and Wendy. So sorry to hear of your loss. We didn't know Audrey well but she was a lovely lady consider ourselves lucky to have met her. We will not be able to attend the funeral service but our thoughts and prayers will be with you on Monday. Barb and Lealand

Well Pretty Lady, you are finally at peace. No one can ever say you didn't give it a valiant fight! I will always admire your strength and determination. You fought hard, and never gave up. My mind is flooded with memories of you...of us...too many to mention. I will ALWAYS hold near & dear your acceptance of me as part of your "family". We shared so many dinners and laughs. Our time spent together spans many years. Take comfort in the fact that your legacy lives on in both Wendy & Vicki. You taught them both to be such strong, independent individuals. I see so much of you in them every day. You did good! Your love for Barry was like no other...very rare these days. You adored one another as though it was your "first love". Personally, I will always treasure the album you put together for me shortly before you left this world. Your knack for "scrap-booking" and making everything look "just right" seemed so effortless to you. Every single picture or embellishment had a special meaning. What a work of art. I know that you are physically gone...but Audrey, you will always be with us. I know that you would not want to miss a thing! Fly high My Angel...be free. You have certainly earned it! Love you as I always have, Lynn
