Hello family of Audrey. I had the pleasure of going to Hirsch High school with your mom. We were so close people said we looked alot alike. After school we went our separate ways but she was always in my heart. I was saddened to hear she had made her transition but I believed she did what God had planned for her life with pride. You have my condolences and prayers
Thank you Mary Ridley McGhee
