She was preceded in death by her father and mother, Matt Croley and Mattie (Croley) Marshall, step-father, Fred Marshall; and sister, Ruth (Siler) Chewning. Audrey held a degree in cosmetology.

She will be sorely missed.

A special thanks to James Baker who helped care for her during her lingering illness.
