PORTLAND – Audrey Burke Reynolds, 83, died Sunday, Sept. 22, 2019, surrounded by loving family.

She was born in Portland, Oct. 17, 1935, the daughter of Victor and Frances Burke.

She attended Portland schools, from the two room Summit Street School to Deering H.S. She then graduated from Green Mountain College in Poultney, Vt.,

Mom worked as a secretary for several companies, ultimately retiring from the Portland Water District. Her primary job though, was raising her children, a job at which she excelled.

Mom enjoyed knitting, time at the beach, skiing, boating, baking and most of all, time with her family. Family gatherings were more special with her pies, salads and keen sense of humor.

Mom was predeceased by her parents, brother, Wally and sister, Lorraine.

She is survived by her daughter, Caroline, son, Mark and daughter-in-law, Denise; four grandchildren, Christine, Katherine, Chandler and Madison. She will be missed by her many nieces, nephews, cousins and her cat, Stella.

Special thanks to the caring and compassionate employees at Maine Medical Center, 4th floor Richards Wing. You made our last days together a special and beautiful time.
