Hi Searching for Audrey,
This has really intrigued me. I see there is a lake/river pretty close by. Has this area been searched? Is there any new information on this case?
>>>>There are many lakes & ponds throughout the area as well as the Hudson River very near by where Audrey worked. Divers were sent out about 3-4 weeks after she disappeared. Nothing was found but I do not believe they were searched very well, especially the Hudson River. From what I was told they searched parts of the water areas that were drivable, meaning that a car could drive in that area.
I've read one account where it says the authorities were not notified until 9:00 am and another that said 6:00 am. Do you know which one is correct?
>>>I am not sure where you retrieved your times from but this is the correct time frame...The authorities were not called until Jeff, Audrey's husband, called her father, Ray & his wife Jeanne on Friday morning at approximately 9:00 a.m. Jeanne was the one who made the initial call to them. Jeff called the hospital at approximately 6:00 a.m. Friday morning to see if Audrey had left work the night prior. They told him at that time that she left at 11:00 p.m. Why he waited to call is unknown.
Did her husband not wait up for her. It seems if she was home by 11:30 pm then it is not that late.
>>>>To my knowledge, Audrey called home to Jeff at approximately 9:30 p.m. Thursday night to tell him about a long awaited raise she recieved. By all accounts of the nurses who worked with her that evening, Audrey was in good spirits. Whether Jeff was in the habit of waiting up for her? I cannot answer that.
Was her husband having an affair?
>>>>Not that anyone knows & in my eyes I would not thinks so, he loved Audrey.
How was their marriage?
>>>>For me & what I saw of them both, their marriage was good. They just moved into their new house to which Jeff built himself. It is a beautiful home & Audrey was doing alot to furnish it & very happy to finally be in it.
How does he behave now a year later?
>>>>For me that is a hard question to answer. I thought Jeff loved Audrey so very much, still do. But it has been a very odd year. Jeff is not active like one would think he should be in the search & stays very much to himself & his family. From what I understand it is because of the two little ones. He is trying to shelter them. I cannot understand it. It breaks my heart & his actions have lead many to believe he may be guilty. I do not keep in close contact with him like I did the first weeks. I just do not know what to say to him. When I do talk to him he is very cold, withdrawn & seemingly ignorant to everything going on around him. I do not know how to help him nor do I want to at times because of it but he is Audrey's husband & until there is evidence to prove otherwise he is innocent & I will continue to search for her without him. Who knows, they say tragedies such as this are dealt with in different ways by evryone. What we think he should be doing he may not be capable of emotionally. I try very hard not to suggest any thing on his part. I want to focus on her & the vehicle. It maddens me to think that many have just stopped at him & choose not to look any further. What if he is not guilty? And until it is proven otherwise he is not.
How did he behave at the candlelight vigil?
>>>>As I said before, he is cold & withdrawn. I spoke to him even though we are not on the best of terms from all of this turmoil. I cannot say much else more but I will tell you he did not shed a tear & for that I felt fear & anger towards him.
What is your opinion?
>>>> I have said it numerous times...In my heart of hearts I just cannot see Jeff harming Audrey, he loved her to death in my eyes...With rumor & speculation it makes it hard, for you need someone to blame...I have not crossed over that line...yet. He should be doing more but it is not mine nor anyone else's place to judge his actions. Who knows how they would react in his situation. It does not make him guilty. I wish he would voice more his wishes to find her if indeed he does wish it.
I feel very sorry for all family and friends and will keep all in my prayers.
>>>>Thank you for your prayers & I hope I have answered a few of your questions for you. It has been a long year...I just want to find her & bring her home. I miss her terribly & to see the heartache in her fathers eyes & to know her mother is so very much lost without her...& the children...no words can say how muy heart breaks a little bit each time for all of them as each day goes by with still no word.
