On September 5, 1943, the late Robert Todd and Mary Elizabeth Little welcomed Audrey Helen into their growing family as the fifth of ten children. As a graduate of Spingarn High School, Audrey learned the value of hard work and attention to detail. While in high school, she worked as a concessionaire at RFK Stadium and after graduating she worked as cashier and waitress at Drug Fair Pharmacy for almost 20 years.  Audrey married Michael Warner in 1967 and was divorced in 1972. In 1982, her brothers founded LB&W Auto Repair and asked Audrey to join the family business as office manager and bookkeeper.  She proudly held that position until she suffered a stroke in 2008.

As a single mother to Keviar, Michelle, and Melinda, Audrey chose to raise her daughters one block from her parents and home church in SE Washington DC. From children's choir, astrology classes at the Smithsonian, Campfire Girls, Girls Scouts, swim lessons, violin lessons, beauty pageants, trips and proms, Audrey made sure her three girls always had what they needed spiritually and intellectually. But it wasn't always about her girls, with such a large family, she was often charged with the care of nieces and nephews and (in later years) her grandchildren, great-nieces, and great-nephews. With Audrey you were guaranteed a good meal, a good time, and discipline. She offered employment opportunities to those who were interested; and supported higher education while stressing self-pride, cleanliness, and attention to detail. When she wasn't working or surrounded by children, Audrey enjoyed hand-dancing, card games, traveling with family, Broadway musicals, and listening to oldies but goodies on PFW.  Most of all, she loved to laugh and watch classic movies and westerns with family and friends.

After her stroke Audrey used that life altering experience to help others by becoming a volunteer at the National Rehabilitation Hospital in Washington DC until she moved to Leesburg, VA in 2010. Audrey wore her stroke like a badge of honor. Whenever the opportunity presented itself, she would tell anyone who would listen how hard she worked to recover her speech; learn to become left-handed; and relearn basic home skills. Upon joining the Leesburg Senior Center in Leesburg, Audrey met some truly amazing people who encouraged her to become a volunteer. At the "center", Audrey also enjoyed winning prizes playing Pokeno; winning trophies playing Wii bowling; and spending quality time with her cherished close friends.

On June 21, 2023, Audrey was called home to be with the Lord after her valiant battle with cancer. She leaves to cherish and honor her life well lived, (daughters) Keviar Warner (John Crawford-el), Michelle Turner (Reggie) and Melinda Warner; (grand-children) Brittany Warner, Chrystina Bowers (Alfred), and Cameryn Turner; (great-grandchildren) Antonio, Darius, Amir, Brielle, and Zen; (siblings) Barbara Owens, Philip Little, Harold Little (Georgia), Warren Little (Beverly), and Leonard Little (Ida), extended family and a host of wonderful friends.
