Audrey was born and raised in Pinecreek, MN to Olaf and Myrtle Kvien on October 5, 1936. She attended school in Pinecreek, Ross, and later graduated from Roseau High School in 1954. She married Albert Flaten in 1955 and together they operated their family farm while raising their 5 children. Once their children were older, Audrey went on to work at Polaris where she worked for about 10 years.
After the death of her first husband, Audrey met Donald Thompson and they were married on December 21, 1974. Shortly after, they moved to Piney, MB where they owned and operated the Boundary Inn and later Thompson's General Store until retirement.
Audrey was happiest spending time with her family and friends, She was well known for her delicious baking and cooking. Nothing brought her more pleasure than having family and friends over for a meal or cup of coffee, lefse, or homemade bread or cinnamon buns. You always left her house with a full belly and with a care package of goodies. Grandma Audrey's "round eggs" on homemade toast will remain a favorite memory for her grandchildren.
Audrey loved the outdoors and spent much of her time cutting wood, gardening, and canning for her family and friends. She enjoyed cross stitching, crocheting, and mending. Summers at their cabin at Buffalo Point provided many wonderful memories of fishing campfires, and family fish fry's.
Audrey always had a smile for everyone. Rest in peace Mom. We love and miss you.
