Avis E. Wold

February 23, 1928 - June 4, 2022

Avis E. Wold, age 94 of Menomonie passed away at the Neighbors of Dunn County with hospice. Avis was born February 23, 1928 to Logan and Mayme (Ailport) Drury in Dunn County. Being the oldest of 11 children, Avis and her family lived in many areas throughout her childhood. In her younger years, she worked at various jobs here and there. When she wasn’t working, she enjoyed camping and snowmobiling. Avis met, fell in love and married her husband Norman after he was out the Army. Together, they bought a home in Menomonie and remodeled it inside and out. While Norman worked outside of the home, Avis was a stay-at-home mom to their only child. Even though her duties continued at home, she also worked for various places in town until she retired. After the passing of her husband, Avis sold their home but continued to live in Menomonie. She loved old country music, especially the Hank Williams era. Avis would sing Karaoke quite often, singing her favorite song Coal Miners Daughter. She also was a fan of the band ZZ Top. Avis always loved seeing her grandchildren and great grandchildren when they would stop for a visit. Avis is survived by her daughter Judy (Don) Poach, Jr. of Wheeler, WI; grandchildren Stuart Slotevig, Joe Slatevig, Mike (Alexa) Slotevig, Nicole Poach, and Sara Hemingway; great grandchildren Evilyn and Bella Slotevig, Rayne Hemingway and Peyton Wormer; brothers Ron (June) Drury, Wayne (Laurie) Drury, Jim (Jean) Drury, David Drury and Howard Drury; sisters Lois Harp, Ruby Wheeler, Faye Witt and Violet Drury; she is also survived by many other relatives and friends. She was preceded in death by her parents, husband Norman, sister Marilyn Link, brothers-in-law Francis Harp, Lamont Wheeler and Tom Link, sister-in-law Barbara Drury, grandson Justin Poach and great grandson Logan Hemingway. Funeral Services will be held at 11:00 a.m. Tuesday, June 7, 2022 at Olson Funeral Home in Menomonie with Pastor Bob Friese officiating.
