Audrey moved her family to Sonoma County in the late 60’s. She owned and operated bars and restaurants in Cloverdale, CA. The Egg Basket, The Lockhorn and most notably, in the early 1970s, The Depot Hotel where her generosity was well-known to all who stopped by for a meal, wanted to shoot pool, have a drink or stay for the night.

Audrey is also survived by her 20 grandchildren (affectionately known to them as MaMa); 28 great-grandchildren; three great-great-grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews. Memories of Audrey include wonderful home-cooked meals, gathering with her family, whom she loved dearly, some born into it, some taken in. Her wonderful voice. She could jump into any song, knowing every word, capturing your attention for hours. She was a favorite among the people at Parkview, especially at music time. Audrey, as we all knew her, could tear down and re-build anything. A master at painting and wallpapering. She was a generous giver of herself and everything she had.
