Audrey Black Alton, 93, passed away the morning of January 31, 2018 at WellHaven Assisted Living in River Falls, Wisconsin.
Audrey was born in River Falls on August 31, 1924 to Harry and Margaret (Bellum) Luberg. She graduated from River Falls High School in 1942 and attended Wisconsin State College – River Falls. She married Don Black, her high school sweetheart, on August 8, 1944. In 1959, she and Don opened Aud-a-Don Group Home, where for the next 23 years they provided guidance to 160 teenage foster boys. With their children's struggle with chronic kidney disease, Don and Audrey were involved in the formation of the National Kidney Foundation of Wisconsin in 1968. They operated their family dairy farm in Mann Valley until 1972.
As a lifelong resident and staple of the community, Audrey volunteered decades of combined service to many civic organizations, including the Glover Homemakers, River Falls Historical Society, P.E.O. Sisterhood, River Falls Area Hospital Auxiliary, Salvation Army, Pierce County Historical Society, River Falls Food Pantry, the River Falls Senior Citizens Club, as an election official in town, and as a longtime teacher's aide at Westside Elementary School. She also served on various committees of the First Congregational Church, where she was a member for over 70 years. Audrey enjoyed reading, playing bridge, serving the community, and was a wealth of information regarding River Falls history.
A celebration of her life was held in August 2017 so many of her friends and family were able to recount memorable, enjoyable and humorous times with her. Audrey's family would like to thank WellHaven Assisted Living and ADORAY Home Health & Hospice for their attentive and loving care.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husband Don, daughter Nancy, son Jimmy, an infant daughter, and second husband Tom Alton.

Honorary pallbearers for Audrey are Pauly Cudd, Randy Cudd, Lyle Bowe, Phil Huggett, Jim Wolfe and Russ Nelson.
