This is emphatically true of Audrey, Audrey is ever will ng to help, and nods her assent and then performs what is asked ol' her. Her most likeable characteristic is her ability to get along with people, and this quality demands friendlness, tolerance, and kindness. She has a light and cheery Way of going about everything. She is dependable, ready to help, and eager to please. Through her life we hope and pray that she will con- tinue to carve a niche in the hearts of all her frends, just as she has done in ours in the few short years we have known her.
