It is with broken hearts that the family of Audrey Mae Taylor (97) announce her passing on November 25, 2021, at Turnbull Nursing Home. Born on January 10, 1924, in Saint John, NB, she was a daughter of the late Alberta (Beckingham) and Harold Melvin.

Audrey was a loving kind and special woman. She loved Christmas and enjoyed time spent with family. Audrey worked at Red Rose tea for 35 years retiring at age 55. After retirement, Audrey and Don enjoyed many winters in both Florida and Hawaii. They also enjoyed many trips to Scotland, which was Don's homeland. They were devoted to each other and truly enjoyed life together during their 45+ year marriage.

In addition to her parents, Audrey was predeceased by her husband, Donald; brother, Donald (Maggie); sisters, Dorothy Forret (the late James), Elizabeth Craig (the late Chester), June Martin (the late Edgar) and Constance Hopey (the late Harry).
