Robert and Audrey knew each other from grade school. Before he enlisted in the army he told her they would be married as soon as he returned….and they were. They lived a great life together and loved to take trips, especially if there was gambling involved. It didn't matter, win or lose as long as they were together, having fun and making new friends along the way. Robert also loved to work on projects for the home, on computers, on anything he could think of. Audrey also loved to play bingo and experiment cooking new foods from one of the food network channels.
Left to cherish their memory are their three children and spouses: Kim, Derrick & Wen, Tyrone & Marisol; their siblings and spouses: Cherry, Philomena & David, Raymond & Lucy; their 3 grandsons: David, Branden and Demetri; Dawn and Tyesha, five great-grandsons, five great-granddaughters and neighbors and friends too numerous to name.
