Our prayers are with you all. Sister Audrey was a fine person. In years past as her pastor, I was always bless by her words of wisdom. She was such a blessing to the church. She was a blessing to me because when she saw things for me were not going well she always came to me with her wonderful words of wisdom. She will be missed. Our thoughts are with the family.
