She was an excellent cook and avid reader and loved spending time with friends and family, including four grandchildren. Diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, Audrey struggled with the challenges of dementia for over 15 years. Residing in long-term care since 2013, she passed peacefully on June 21, 2018 just 8 months after Richard.. She will be missed. Thank you to the caring people at Olds Hospital Long Term Care.
