Audrey was a native of New Orleans and was involved in many volunteer and charity organizations in her lifetime, but her greatest achievement was being a devoted mother, grandmother and friend.
The family is thankful to the staff of Poydras Home where Audrey resided for the last 4 years. Their dedication will never be forgotten by her grateful family. Also, to the nurses of Passages Hospice for their compassionate care and support.
The family will have a private memorial celebration of a life well-lived at a future date.
