Audrianne “Audrey” Conyers died peacefully on Dec. 3 at El Camino Hospital in Mountain View. She was 84.
Born in Michigan, she attended the Edison Institute in historic Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan. The school was founded by Henry Ford, who attended morning chapel on most school days. Ms. Conyers knew Mr. Ford personally and shared many stories about her unique education, say family members.
She attended St. Mary-of-the-Woods College and graduated from Michigan State University. While taking graduate studies at the University of Michigan, she met her future husband, John Conyers. They were married in 1953 and moved to Menlo Park in 1960, where they raised their four daughters.
For the past 18 years, Ms. Conyers has been a resident of Los Altos.
She is survived by her children, Betsy DePangher, Deborah Winter, Janice Chambers, and Jaci Beering; and eight grandchildren. John Conyers died in 1983.
Services will be private. A tribute fund in Ms. Conyers’ name has been set up at City Team Ministries, 2304 Zanker Road, San Jose, CA 95131. Donations should be made in memory of Audrianne Conyers.
