Andrea Walsh Obituary

Andrea C. Walsh, 75, of Burlington, died Friday, Feb. 27, 2026, at her home in Burlington.

Born Jan. 13, 1951, in Burlington, she was the daughter of Richard Donald and Edna Darlene Tilton Breuer. She first married Martin William Walsh on Dec. 20, 1975, in Burlington.

Andrea began her career at Burlington Bank & Trust and remained with the company when it transitioned to Hawkeye Bank. She later joined CPA Associates, where she worked for 16 years before retiring in 2011. After retirement, Andrea devoted herself to caring for her father, serving as his home health aide for many years.

She enjoyed reading, sewing, and tending to her flower beds. Andrea also loved spending time on the computer; playing games, watching old Johnny Carson reruns, listening to audio books, and learning new things. Above all, family meant everything to Andrea. She cherished camping trips with her husband and treasured the time she spent with her grandchildren.

Survivors include her husband, Martin Walsh of Burlington; son, Philip (Maggie) Walsh of New London; two daughters, Lisa Kerns of Burlington, and Heidi Best of Des Moines; 11 grandchildren; one great-granddaughter; one brother, Steven (Adrienne) Breuer of Orlando, Fla.; and sister, Jeanine (Mike) Ritchie of Tiffin.

She was preceded in death by her parents.

Cremation has been entrusted to the care of Prugh Crematory.

The Graveside Committal Service for Mrs. Walsh will be 1:30 p.m. Thursday, March 5, in Aspen Grove Cemetery. Those wishing to attend the service can meet us at her gravesite near the Sunnyside Avenue gate.

A memorial has been established for her grandchildren's education.
