Audrey was the youngest of four children born to Howard and Mary Ann Carr on December 18th, 1962 in Waco, TX. She lived In McGregor and graduated from McGregor High School where she participated in sports such as softball and basketball. She was known to be very competitive. Audrey met her husband David Brooks, on a blind date at Steak and Ale set up by her sister Patricia and husband Marcus Kelm. This blind date sparked a love that resulted in their marriage on November 22nd, 1986 with their love growing deeper day after day for almost 35 years. Audrey and David welcomed their first child, a daughter, Monica in 1991 and later a son, Cody, in 1994.

Audrey was an extremely hard worker and this trait was exemplified in every aspect of her life especially when it came to her family. You could always count on Audrey to show up. If you needed her, she was there to lend a helping hand, an encouraging smile, and a servant’s heart. She would drop whatever she had going on to be there for you. Audrey was the true definition of selfless.

Audrey was preceded in death by her father, Howard Carr. She is survived by her husband David Brooks; mother, Mary Ann Carr; brother, Craig Carr and wife Deanna, sister, Pam Travis and husband Larry, sister, Trish Kelm and husband Marcus; sister in law Lori Hoke and husband Mike; daughter, Monica Cloe, husband Barak, and son Dax; son, Cody Brooks and wife Sarah Beth; and 11 nieces and nephews.

She will be remembered for her constant dedication to her family, contagious laugh, but above all, her love for The Lord. Her memory will live on in the lives of her family as they strive to be more like her.

The family would like to send their heartfelt appreciation and thanks to all of the people who showered them in love and prayers including the wonderful nursing staff involved in Audrey’s care.
