Born on September 14, 1926, in Upper Darby, PA, Audrey was the beloved daughter of Clifford and Lauretta Shellhase. Audrey lived a full life with style and spirit. She enjoyed traveling, loved to sing, dance, and play the piano, to entertain and to be entertained. Most especially, Audrey loved raising and spending time with her family. She was a devoted mother, cherished friend, and a light in the lives of all who knew her. Audrey’s warmth, fierce strength, and kindness touched everyone she met.

Preceded in death by her husband, Laurence Lucker, Jr. (2002); her first husband, John Telthorster (1988), father of their five children; her son, Greg Telthorster; her great-grandson, Luke Layfield; and her parents, brothers (Clifford and William), and sister (Phyllis).

She is also survived by her 11 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren, every one of whom she got to meet and loved.

A celebration of Audrey’s life will be scheduled at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made in Audrey’s name to the American Cancer Society, the American Heart Association, or Paoli Presbyterian Church.

Her legacy of love, laughter, and resilience will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.
