Rick, Kathy and Teresa- I have fond memories of time spent at your home. Aunt Audrey could always make the tightest ponytail ever. I did get to play golf with her one time. She had a long blessed life with Uncle Fred. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Audrey was one of the sweetest...Her and Fred were the best neighbors growing up. Will cherish the memories... Prayers and hugs to all the family.
So sorry for your loss, prayers of comfort and peace for you all!
Kathy and Family: We are sorry for your loss. Our prayers are for comfort and strength for each of you during this sad time 🙏🏻
I am happy you are now at peace, Aunt Audrey. You were one of my most favorite aunts. You, Aunt Ruth and Aunt Eula came to Tuscola faithfully almost every trip I made back from Europe (ostensibly to shop at the discount mall) . I loved having the chance to visit. I will miss you, but cherish all the many, many memories I have!
Rick, Kathy & Teresa - Such great memories from growing up and visiting at the Weiler house and enjoying Aunt Audrey's amazing cooking. She was a wonderful lady and aunt and I know she is at peace with the Lord
So very sorry. God bless u all
Aunt Audrey, I will not forget the last trip I took to see you to bring mom as I knew it would be her last trip. Kay, may her soul be resting peacefully with our lord, drove us by the location of the Bissey family farm where you grew up, the chowder grounds and many other landmarks. May you be enjoying your reunion with Uncle Fred and all of your family.
