AUDREY (MARLENE) FRIESEN It is with profound sadness the family announces the passing of Audrey Friesen on Thursday, July 26, 2007, at the St. Boniface Hospital at the age of 55 years. Audrey was predeceased by her parents. She will be lovingly remembered by her husband Abe; her son Jared and her daughter Eden. Left to cherish her memory are her dearest and closest friends, Donna-Lynn and Rhonda. Audrey took pride in the work that she did for the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra. She was a very generous and giving person. She spent her life donating her valuable time and efforts to non-profit organizations, working hard to raise money for various charities and striving to meet the organization's goals. Audrey had a dynamite sense of humour. During her entire journey she always found a way to make others laugh. She was a strong and courageous woman. She never complained about the pain she was going through and she always put others before herself. The family would like to express their sincere gratitude to the staff of 6A at the St. Boniface Hospital for all the care and compassion given to Audrey during her illness. A special thank you to Dr. Danais-Brown, Dr. Zaki and Dr. Grenier for all the care and comfort they provided to Audrey.
