Obituary

Andresa Rae Mulnix was born on October 17, 1963, in Ladysmith, Wisconsin. She was the daughter of Fred J. Strahm and Ruth E. (Williams) Strahm. She received her education at Bruce Public School and was part of the graduating Class of 1981. She furthered her education at Normandale Community College.

On October 21, 2017, four days after her birthday, she got her birthday wish and met the man of her dreams. “He knows how to back up a trailer!” On May 18, 2019, Andresa was united in marriage to Roy Mulnix in West St. Paul, Minnesota. After their marriage, the couple resided in South Minneapolis and later in Arlington, Minnesota. She was employed at Bock and Associates for over 20 years, then it was purchased by Farm Journal. She was such an asset; that the new company asked her to stay working with them.

Andresa enjoyed quilting, going to quilting workshops, and reading many types of books, Sci-Fi (Science fiction) being her favorite. She had an adventurous palette for many incredible foods. She loved traveling, especially with her husband, and riding on the back of their Harley-Davidson. Her walk with God and Church at Evergreen in Bloomington, Minnesota, was a huge part of her life for many years. Most recently, Andresa was a member of Lighthouse Church in Plato, Minnesota. She also liked volunteering at Feed My Starving Children and with the children's ministry. She had a great thirst for knowledge and wisdom as well as learning about herbs and how they worked. She was so passionate; she could talk for hours about any of these subjects. She greatly cherished the time she spent with her family and friends.
