Audrey Luana Bailey's Obituary
Audrey L. Bailey, 90, of Stockdale, formerly of Greenock, PA, passed away peacefully on February 13, 2024. A daughter of the late John and Stella (Green) Henderson, she was born in Clairton, PA, and is survived by one of her four siblings, Alma (Eileen) Caruthers.
Devoted and beloved wife of 71 years to Donald C. Bailey (the "whole world for him"), and the beloved mother of Dennis Bailey (Valerie), Robin McClelland (Jim), and Brian Bailey (Laura); grandmother of Melissa Bailey (Zach Cooper), Justine Bailey (partner Christopher Varjas), Ethan Bailey, Jessica Valdiserri (Paul), Christopher McClelland (partner Suzy Gruber), Tiffany O'Neil (Jon), Ashley McClelland (boyfriend Kenny Sapos), Brianne Bailey (fiancée Derek Boyer), Allison Bailey (boyfriend Dakota Coltogirone), Chris Saunders, and Rachel Sieber (Scott); and great grandmother of Landon, Gavin, Camden, Jacklyn, Jason, Bailey, Hudson and Baylor. Preceded in death by a granddaughter, Monica.
Audrey enjoyed and was the key provider for what seemed like almost weekly family gatherings over the years, including snowmobiling at Audrey and Don's house at Mt. Davis, and boating at their Deep Creek camp and at their house on the "Mon". In addition, she'll always be remembered for her maintenance of a loving household (and clean one... as she loved to vacuum), her love of baking (pepperoni rolls....yum), and for her laughter at the family's "crazy" sense of humor. She was also a passionate fan of her Pittsburgh Penguins, attending hundreds of games as a season ticket holder for decades.
Burial will be held privately.
