Audrey grew-up in the Frogtown area of St. Paul. She attended St. Adalbert’s Catholic Grade School and was a 1950 graduate of Mechanic Arts High School. She enjoyed life … traveling with family and friends, cooking and sewing, conversing with people, and finding a “bargain”. Audrey was extremely proud of her “Catholic-Polish” heritage. 

A lover of travel, Audrey is now on her final journey!
