of The Vegetarian Resource Group, which has grown to
an organization of over 17,000 supporters. In her earlier years,
Ms. Fluke had been active in the British vegetarian movement.
Audrey was a nurse. It's no surprise that she chose this profession.
She was an extremely caring individual, always offering words of
support. Even when Audrey was going through adversity,
she was cheerful and encouraging of others. In honor of Audrey Fluke,
The Vegetarian Resource Group will give an annual award to
a person who helped others become vegetarian through encouragement
and a positive demeanor.
