Aunt Audrey always welcomes me, her sister-in-law, of course, her brother, whom she loved, and our two children, Aaron & Elisa Rose,
into her house & into her heart, when we visited her & her husband, Jim.  We spent several holidays with Audrey & Jim Hensley, when Aaron & Elisa were young.  We drove down from Santa Clara to San Luis Obispo & later, when Jim & Audrey moved to Los Osos to spend the holidays with them.  Audrey was a great cook & fed us well.  I noted that she could load a dishwasher more efficiently than anyone I knew!  What a sweet lady she was.

Audrey Hensley Memories

Audrey Hensley was my dear sweet sister-in-law.  When my husband, Ronald Allan Laux took me to meet his mother, Bessie, and his two sisters, Audrey & Laverne, in 1970, I was warmly welcomed by the whole family.

Through the many years of our marriage, we visited Audrey & Jim several times, when our two children, Aaron & Elisa Rose, were young.  Audrey was the perfect hostess as she prepared delicious food, & made our overnight stays most comfortable.  Aaron & Elisa always liked going to Audrey & Jim’s house, but the trip was tiring for them – driving from Santa Clara, CA to San Luis Obispo was about a seven hour drive, including a stop over for lunch.  We also had some good phone conversations these last years, both at her home in Los Osos and when she was in Bayside Care Center.

I still have some of Audrey’s recipes, like her layered chicken enchiladas.  She was a good cook.  She had to be, with raising four strong boys.  

I will miss Audrey’s smiling welcome as we showed up at her front door.  When we were leaving, she stayed outside & waved to us as long as she could see our car before we turned the corner.

Now Audrey doesn’t have to cook or clean, but just enjoy her Lord & Savior, Jesus, and all of her loved ones, who went before her.

Thank you, Mike, Ray, Gordon & Tim, for making your mom proud of you as you all moved out to have your own families.  You all helped Audrey in your own way, especially after Jim died.  Now Audrey is once again with her sister, Laverne & her brother, Ronnie.  Alleluia!  I miss her, but I know she is happy in her new life with Our Lord.

p.s. I sent a donation to The Veterans of Foreign Wars in honor of Audrey Hensley, whose husband was a veteran.


Since Audrey and I shared the same birthday, neither one of us forgot the other ones special day. 
I always thought she was a Woman to be admired, never showed anger or being mad. Always had smiles for anyone she met or was talking to. Hard working and took pleasure in her family and friends. I loved hearing her play the Violin. Seeing her play the Violin in church was a wonderful pleasure.
