Audrey M. Van Mullekom, age 92, passed away on Thursday night, August 14, 2025 at Brian's House. The daughter of the late Myron and Stella (Myers) Atheron, she was born on July 28, 1933 in Bay City. Audrey graduated from T.L. Handy High School in 1951. A homemaker most of her life, she truly cherished her role as a devoted wife and loving mother, and she will be greatly missed by her family and friends.

On June 8, 1957 Audrey was united in marriage to James F. Van Mullekom and sadly he preceded her in death on November 9, 2012. She is survived by their four children, Sharon A. Van Mullekom, Gary J. (Janet) Van Mullekom, Alan R. Van Mullekom and Julie M. Frye; five grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. Audrey was also preceded in death by a son-in-law, Craig Frye; and her sister, Blanche Western.

It was Audrey's desire for cremation to take place and that no services be held. Funeral home arrangements are being provided by Trahan Funeral Chapel. Celebrate Audrey's life online by sharing your favorite stories and photos on her dedicated webpage at www.trahanfc.com

Sharon, Sorry to read about your mother. She had a long life. I remember her having some of us from White Pine over for lunch at the trailer park on Lawndale. Hope you and your siblings have good memories. Share the stories with the grand kids. Ann McManmon
