   Nancy Pauline (Edwards) Audette, age 88, went to join the Lord on July 8, 2026. Born on January 21, 1938, in Inguadona Township, she was the daughter of Roland and Marion Edwards. Nancy spent many years in multiple careers dedicated to caring for the needs of others. Above all, her greatest joy was her family, whom she deeply cared for and loved to spoil at every opportunity.

   Nancy was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Douglas Audette; her son, Matthew; her daughter-in-law, Brenda; her brothers, Roland, John, and Robert Edwards; and her sister, Mary Slagle.

   She is survived by her sons, Douglas (Maureen), Todd (Susanne), and Armand; her daughter, Cheryl (John) Settlemire; 13 grandchildren, David, Becky, Matthew, Amanda, Anthony, Nicholas, Albert, Abagayle, Letitia, Josh, Amber, Tyler, and Devin; and 9 great-grandchildren, Emma, Eli, Ean, Lena, Roland, Kian, Kaia, Kiera, and Wesley. She also leaves behind her siblings, Marian Paschket, Ruth Edwards, Sara Edwards, Katie Elwell, Joey Edwards, Donald Edwards, David Edwards, and Geri Garoutte, alongside countless nieces, nephews, and many other family members and friends.

   A Celebration of Life will be held on Wednesday, July 15, 2026 at 11 AM to be followed by a time of fellowship at the Longville Bible Chapel with Pastor Bob Leko. A private burial will be held at Riverside Cemetery in Longville, MN.
