On Friday January 8, 2021  Audrey Ruth Angelides (Dr. Audrey Krauss) passed away at the age of 93.  She went peacefully, of natural causes and was surrounded by loved ones in her final days.

Audrey was married to Dr. Angelo Peter Angelides, and is survived by their two sons Peter and Jason (56 and 53 respectively),  their 5 grandchildren (Matthew 25, Madeline 19, Scott 16, Sophie 10, and Brooke 6), and daughter in law Jill.

Audrey was born Feb 18, 1927 in Millburn, NJ where she stayed before leaving to attend Bucknell University receiving a BS in Biology.  While completing her degree she became part of the movement to supply munitions in WW2.  As "Audrey the Riveter" she assembled detonators in a torpedo factory.

Audrey always felt a calling to help the sick and as such went on to attend Samuel Hahnemann University Medical School in Philadelphia (now Drexel University).  She chose the field of anesthesiology and stayed in Philadelphia to complete her residency at Philadelphia General Hospital and the University of Pennsylvania.  She then went on to have a long career in medicine practicing at Lankenau and other hospitals as (Audrey Krauss MD).

Audrey's passion for providing care was combined with her passion for travel when in 1962, she joined the HOPE ship on its mission to Peru, where it, and she supplied food, medicine, healthcare and education to thousands of poor families.  This was an impactful experience and drove her desire to aid the sick.

While at Lankenau Hospital, she met Dr. Angelo Angelides and they married in 1963.  She and Angelo were together through his passing in 1996.

Audrey was a woman of many interests.  She was an unusual combination of athlete, academic and healer.  She loved the game of tennis and played several times a week until late into her early 80s.  She was an avid traveler and was lucky enough to see many corners of the world.  These included notable trips throughout Europe and South America as well as notable trips to Soviet Russia, The Galapagos Islands, Egypt and Africa.

Later in her life she developed a passion for boating and purchased a 40' Trawler which she docked in Rock Hall, MD. and sailed on numerous adventures including completing over half of the great loop from Lake Erie to the Gulf Coast of Florida.  She remained owner and captain of "Wings" until the age of 89.

In her final years, she moved from her home in Haverford, PA, to Dunwoody Village in Newtown Square, PA. where she enjoyed meeting and playing bridge with her friends, reading, following politics and sharing time with her children and grandchildren.

We have remembered and honored Audrey with a contribution to her favorite charity Planned Parenthood .
