Audrey Ann Mair

Audrey Ann Mair passed away peacefully at her home on October 25, 2026, at the age of 91 just one month short of turning 92.

Audrey was born in Aberdeen, Washington, to Frank Archie & Dora Maude Dimick. The family moved from Aberdeen to Provo, Utah where Audrey grew up.

Throughout her life, Audrey brought beauty wherever she lived. Her gardens, full of roses, vegetables, and bright flowers, were always grown with care. She took great pride in cultivating beautiful flower beds and vegetable gardens at every home she lived in. Gardening was a lifelong passion.

Audrey also had wonderful artistic talent. She enjoyed painting with both oil and acrylic and decorating her surroundings with artistic touches. She especially enjoyed sun motifs and garden decorations that could be displayed on walls or throughout her yard.

Her creativity extended to her homes themselves. Audrey loved transforming houses with fresh paint, new carpeting, cabinetry, and other improvements, making each home beautiful and welcoming. She took pleasure in surrounding herself with fine decorative pieces, including Lladró porcelain figurines, crystal, jewelry, and artwork. She had an eye for selecting beautiful things and enjoyed creating an elegant home where family and friends could gather and feel welcome. She was a passionate cookie jar collector and had an extensive set including many Christmas themed jars.

Family was an important part of Audrey’s life. She welcomed her grandchildren who were attending school away from home, offering them a place to live and a home where they could enjoy spending time with her during those important years. Her willingness to open her home reflected her generosity and the special relationships she shared with her family.

Audrey worked for Mountain Fuel in Utah as a dispatcher, where she earned praise for her dedication and the quality of her work. She later worked in the jewelry business at Losee Jewels and continued to develop a deep appreciation for fine jewelry and the beauty of well-crafted pieces.

Her faith was an important part of her life. As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Audrey was active in her church and made meaningful contributions to the wards in which she lived.

Music brought Audrey great joy, especially the classic songs she loved. Her appreciation for music was another reflection of her love for beauty and the finer things in life.

Audrey married Norman Lee Christiansen, and together they made their home on Eastwood Drive in Orem, Utah, where Kelly, Tyler, and Page grew up. Audrey enjoyed golfing and was a good golfer, and her time with Norm included activities at Riverside Country Club.

Later, Audrey married and was sealed in an LDS Temple to Leslie Tolman Larson, affectionately known as Grandpa Les to the children. While living together in Sandy, Utah, Audrey was active in their retirement community, where she hosted dinners, holiday celebrations, and other gatherings that brought neighbors together. She and Les also enjoyed traveling in their RV as members of Good Sam’s, sharing adventures and time on the road.

In her later years, Audrey lived for approximately three years in Woodruff, Arizona, a small rural community of about 150 people. She quickly earned the love and respect of the people there and made a meaningful, positive impact on many lives. Her warmth and willingness to connect with others made her a valued member of the community.

Audrey spent her final three years in Sun City, Arizona, where she formed close friendships with her neighbors. These neighbors became dear friends, and they, too, are grieving the loss of someone who had become an important part of their lives.

Audrey is survived by her son, Tyler (Lisa) Christiansen, and her daughter, Page (Wes) Radford and Les’s children Sandra (Rex) Workman, LeeAnn (John) Ferran, Allen (Diane) Larson.

Her grandchildren include Kyle, Michael, and Sarah; Rachel, Joshua, Amanda, Adam, and Katelyn; and Coleman, Adrianne, Austin, Hailey, and Amelia. She is also survived by her 35 great-grandchildren.

Audrey was preceded in death by her parents, Frank Archie Dimick and Dora Maud Page Dimick; and her sister, Doreen Long; her brothers, Reed Dimick and Roland Dimick; her daughter, Kelly Whitney; and her husbands, David Billingsley, Norman Lee Christiansen, and Leslie Tolman Larson.

Audrey’s life was defined by creativity, independence, generosity, faith, and a deep love for family and home. She leaves behind more than memories. She leaves the gardens she tended, the homes she made beautiful, the artwork she created, the family she welcomed into her home, and the many people whose lives she touched through her kindness, hospitality, and friendship.

She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered. Audrey leaves a legacy of faith in God and a testimony of the gospel.

A celebration of Audrey’s life will be held on her upcoming 92nd birthday, November 21, 2026. In lieu of formal services, we invite family, friends, and neighbors to honor her memory by doing simple acts of kindness, helping a neighbor, volunteering in your communities, sharing a meal, or planting something beautiful. These gestures reflect her generous spirit and lifelong love of kindness and community.
