Audrey served as lay worship leader for the service and continued in relationship with our organization, inspiring and making a lasting impression on everyone she met.
ABOUT AUDREY GALE HALL & THIS FUND: The Texas Unitarian Universalist Justice Ministry community deeply grieves the death of Audrey Gale Hall, beautiful friend, anti-racism activist, transgender UU young adult, and recent staff or member of three TXUUJM congregations: Horizon UU in Carrollton, Emerson UU Church in Houston, and First UU Church of Houston. We send our sympathy to those congregations and all of Audrey’s family and friends. Audrey was and is beloved by many, including TXUUJM Board members and Executive Director. We are heartbroken to lose her light, her smile, her way of being, thinking, considering, and connecting. We lament that we will not see our dreams for greater liberation work come to fruition with her here in person. And from that grief, we establish this memorial fund and rededicate ourselves to the spiritually grounded justice movement that Audrey was committed to co-creating.
