I have known Aubrey since 1988, when we,(Faye and I) moved to greenbrier after my retirement in Tucson, AZ.
He and Naomi were the first couple to visit us and invite us to their church.
We enjoyed many good times with them both at church and in each others homes. Aubrey was a very good friend and was always available to help when needed. I rejoice with Naomi and family knowing Aubrey is in heaven and at peace.

Even though we are sad over Aubrey' s passing, we rejoice in his going home after so long an illness. He and Naomi have been special friends for many years, and we can't begin to count the memories we have stored up to share when we meet him There. He was my "42" partner, and even though Naomi and Dorwood claimed victories many times, I was the victor from having Aubrey as my partner! Wait for us, my friend, and we will resume our good times some day soon!!

Uncle Aubrey was always so kind, caring and a hard worker. He called me "KID" as a young girl. You have now crossed over to glory land where one day we will all join you. Rest in peace. Love you

Naomi, words cannot express the joy it has been to know you and Aubrey for all these years even though our friendship had to be a long distance one! We know Aubrey is in a better place but will certainly be missed by all who knew him. He was certainly blessed to have your love and then during his illness to have your excellent care and if the situation were reversed he would have done the same for you! His sense of humor and kindness will never be forgotten and oh how I remember how he scared me when we came to see you in Greenbriar and he drove your car until the gas needle was on empty and I just knew we'd be walking home from the country! He thought that was so funny! We love you and will be praying for you in the days ahead. Please call at any time and our door is always open to you!
Love, Charles & Charlene
