Audrie Lorraine Pelosi - “Mrs. The Fox”
February 19, 1996 – May 30, 2026
It is with profound sadness and endless love that we announce the passing of Audrie Lorraine Pelosi on May 30, 2026, at the age of 30. Her vibrant life was cut short due to a tragic climbing accident.
Born on February 19, 1996, in the Duluth, Minnesota area, Audrie was an old soul with a wild heart and a deep love for the outdoors. She pursued a life filled with adventure, connection, and purpose, always seeking the next mountain to climb, trail to ride, or snow-covered slope to explore. She was a lover not a fighter, a climber not a whiner, one tough adventure chick.
Audrie's passion for the outdoors shaped both her personal and professional life. During her work at Ski Hut in Duluth, she met the love of her life, Jimmy "The Fox" Robinson, at a snowboard event at Welch Village, MN. The connection was truly love at first sight. Instantly Lovers and Soulmates. On February 22, 2023, at 2:22 p.m., surrounded by the beauty of Mount Bohemia, Audrie and Jimmy were married atop the mountain they loved. Their friends and family witnessed an epic love story.
Following their marriage, Audrie moved to Baraboo, Wisconsin, where she built a life filled with community, friendship, and adventure. The locals quickly called her a Baraboo Celebrity. She excelled in several roles, including her work with Ski Hut of Duluth, Viking Ski Shop of Chicago, Wildside Action Sports of Baraboo, Downtown Baraboo Inc., Bella Vita Coffee, and Apex Adventure Alliance. No matter where she worked, Audrie left a lasting impression through her dedication, kindness, and unmistakable sense of humor.
Audrie was known and loved for her contagious dry wit, her authenticity, and her ability to make everyone feel loved. People gravitated toward her naturally. Whether she was sharing stories around a campfire, helping someone conquer a climbing route, or simply making friends laugh with a perfectly timed comment, Audrie brought light wherever she went.
Among her greatest joys was being a proud dog mom to the three-legged Chili Dog, an incredibly loving auntie to 10 nieces and nephews (“the little beans”) and surrounding herself with new challenges in the great outdoors.
Audrie is survived by her devoted husband, Jimmy Robinson; Grandparents, John Schweiger and Joseph A. Pelosi Sr.; Parents, Heather Schweiger, and Paul (Penny) Pelosi; In-laws, James and Dawn Robinson; Siblings, Lindsay (Nelson) del Valle, Shannon Pelosi, Joseph Pelosi, and Isaac Schweiger; Step Siblings, Kelsey Rutchasky, Elijah Brant, Hailey Brant, Shaye Brant and Rayna Arndt; Numerous Aunts, Uncles, Cousins and a community of snowboarders, climbers, cyclists, and outdoor enthusiasts who were fortunate enough to know her.
Though her time with us was far too short, the impact she made on the lives around her will endure for generations. Audrie will be deeply missed by the snowboarding and rock-climbing communities that she loved so dearly. Her spirit lives on in every summit reached, every trail explored, and every snowy mountain run shared among friends.
Keep climbing, Audrie. We love you, and we will carry you with us always.
A Celebration of Life will be held at Redlin-Ertz Funeral Home on Saturday, June 6, 2026, at 3 p.m. Visitation will be held at the funeral home from 1 p.m. until the time of service.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Ruff Rescue, NAMI, The Access Fund, Protect Our Winters or another charitable organization you feel Audrie would love.
There will be a Celebration of Life in Audrie’s hometown of Duluth, MN on Monday, June 22, 2026 from 5 p.m. - 7 p.m. at The Buffalo House, 2590 Guss Road, Duluth, MN, 55810.

My heart is absolutely broken hearing of her passing. Even though many years have gone by and life took us in different directions, I will always remember her as my stepsister and a part of my early adulthood. Some of my fondest memories include the times spent together in the early years of my daughter, Ava’s life, Audrie was so adored by babies and toddlers. Those memories will always hold a special place in my heart. It is difficult to comprehend such a tragic loss, especially for someone whose life was filled with so much adventure, courage, and spirit. I hope that in time, the countless memories, stories, and love she shared with others will bring comfort to those who knew and loved her most. Please know that I am holding your family close in my thoughts and prayers during this unimaginable time. She will be remembered, missed, and never forgotten. With love and deepest sympathy, Natalie Tredal
