Throughout her lifetime, Audrey had a servant’s heart. She has prepared meals and provided lodging for countless Missionaries and their families. She was a relentless giver of her time and money and culinary abilities to anyone she could assist. She loved Thanksgiving, largely because she was so very thankful for all of the Lord’s blessings.
Audrey was without siblings. She is survived by her only child, Sharon L. Hammond, and several cousins, whom she adored, together with numerous friends.
