Born in Pittsburgh to the late Henry and Sophia (nee Peipock) Arnold, Audrey was defined by her devout Catholic faith, her commitment to family, and her unwavering love for her husband, Michael. A longtime resident of Mount Washington, she was well-known in the neighborhood for her active lifestyle and strong work ethic.
