I’m Mrs. Autrey, and I love…My family

I have been married for 27 years to my husband Rick. We have three children – Josh who is a music teacher in Orlando, Florida (Josh is newly married to Brittni); Mitch who works for an oil company and is a chemical engineer (Mitch lives near the Arctic Ocean in Alaska); and Allie who is a math teacher at

Germantown High School.

The BeachMy family and I

own a beach home in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida. We spend many weekends enjoying the sun, sand, and surf at the Gulf of Mexico. It’s our home away from home.

ReadingI enjoy

mysteries and realistic fiction. My favorite

author is Francine Rivers.

TeachingI have been teaching

or the office will be notified.file://localhost/Users/Angie/Documents/Correct Behavior Card.docx
