On September 8, 1943 Audrey married the love of her life, Larry Martin. During their fifty-eight years of marriage, Audrey and Larry had two daughters, Judy and Jo Ellen. Sadly, on November 14, 2001 Audrey experienced immense heartbreak when Larry died.
For twenty-five years Audrey worked at Heckman Bindery in North Manchester, Indiana. In addition to working outside of the home, Audrey was also a homemaker. From raising their children to cooking and housekeeping, Audrey always took great joy and pride in her family. She taught her daughters and grandchildren the value of hard work and helping wherever they could. Audrey was the example of a strong Christian woman. For many years she helped set up funeral dinners and whatever else needed done around the Christian Fellowship Church of North Manchester, Indiana, where she was a member.
Audrey loved tending to her plants in the garden. Her idea of caring for plants was the same as the way she cared for people. Many times, if a piece of a plant broke off, she tried to start a new plant with it. She did the same with people. If they were in need, she tried to make the best of things for that person. She loved her children deeply, but it was her grandchildren and great-grandchildren who were the apples of her eye. They became her life and purpose.
The loving memory of Audrey M. Martin will be forever cherished by her daughters, Judy Coleman, Goshen, Indiana, and Jo Ellen Monce, North Manchester, Indiana; grandchildren, Karrie (David) Coleman, Janelle (Matthew) Sepsey, Jill (Ryan) LoMonaco, Hollie (Jeff) Felgar, Martin (Jody) Monce, and Lindsay (Andy) Deming; and eight great-grandchildren. Audrey was preceded in death by her parents, Elmer and Elva Christner; husband, Larry Martin; brothers, Claude, Roy, Raymond, Wilbur, and John Christner; and sisters, Fern Christner, Mildred Warner, Genieve Oldfather, and Virginia Able.
