Obituary of Audrey Booker Spears

Please share a memory of Audrey to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Audrey Booker Spears was born February 18, 1935 to the late Ulysses and Lillian Booker. On Sunday, November 23, 2014 she went to be with her Lord and Savior. She joined Tearwallet Baptist Church at an early age and remained a member until the end. Audrey graduated from Cumberland High School and continued her education at Virginia State University. Upon completion of school she relocated to New York where she met and married the love of her life, Win Spears. They have enjoyed over 50 years together. While in New York Audrey worked as a youth counselor with the City of New York. After many years in New York, Audrey and family returned home to Cumberland County; where she worked for the Department of Juvenile Justice at Bon Air Learning Center, and operated Booker's Restaurant. Later in life she worked as a transportation provider for Medicaid clients, and for students at Elk Hill. Audrey was an entrepreneur known for being a fun and loving person, but also someone who didn't play when it came down to business. She was a very stylish and fashionable person who also wore a bright and full smile to set it off! She enjoyed her family, friends, and special gatherings; and especially loved weekend and extended get-aways with her beloved husband. Audrey leaves to celebrate her life: her devoted husband and best friend, Win; sons, Ronald (Linda), Nickolas and Winn (Ashley) Spears; three stepsons, Russell Spears (Teresa), Dwayne Robinson (Doreen), and Kenneth Spears; one stepdaughter, Wendy Spears-Johnson (Fred); twenty-one grandchildren; six great-grandchildren; one sister-in-law, Verdella Lee; one brother-in-law, Cleveland Spears; plus numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
