Audrey loved spending time at their cabin on Prairie Lake. She also enjoyed golfing, bowling, fishing, playing her piano, attending musical performances and spending time with friends and family.
Audrey was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and homemaker. She never missed an opportunity to attend her grandchildren’s school or sporting events. She was especially proud of her grandchildren’s successful accomplishments after their college graduations.
Audrey was a life-long member of First Lutheran Church until recently joining New Life Lutheran Church. Her faith was an important part of who she was.
