Audrey loved to party, dance, dress, entertain, and be the life of the party. She loved going to church when she was well. She loved everybody she came in contact with. Everybody loved "Foots". Audrey was classy, sassy and lived her life to the fullest, whether she was painting the town red or just going to the grocery store, she did it in style...flashy, coordinated and always well put together. She lived the life she loved and loved the life she lived. Audrey "Foots" was a God fearing woman who did not hesitate to speak her mind. She loved having a good time. A "Smile " meant more than a facial expression to Foots, and if you knew her well, then you know the other meaning! She loved Red Lobster and was a great customer to the end.... or should we say "to the beginning". Audrey was always positive when she received her health care despite the weekly appointments, she kept a smile on her face and always has a saying to go with it. How are you Darling.

Audrey was predeceased by her daughter Beverly Abbott her son Clyde Terry Jr. her sister Ruth Fields, Brother Fred Black, and Lillian Fields.
