Maurine died on Feb. 27, 2014, at St. John’s Lutheran Community.

Maurine L. Adix was born Aug. 10, 1915, on a farm south of Frost, to Ruby (Nelson) and Bernhard (Ben) Brekke.  She was baptized and confirmed at South Blue Earth Lutheran Church.  Her family moved into Frost, where she attended grade school. In 1933 Maurine graduated from Blue Earth High School and in 1934 from Blue Earth Teachers Training. She taught country school in Faribault and Freeborn counties.

Maurine was married to Max Adix at the Emerald Lutheran Church of Frost on Oct. 2, 1940. They farmed the home farm near Mansfield until 1982, when they retired and moved to Alden. They were members of Mansfield Lutheran Church. She was a former Sunday school teacher and past president of the A.L.C. Women, Altar Guild and circles. Max passed away in 1994.  Maurine moved to Knutson Apartments in Albert Lea in 1997 and to St John’s Lutheran Home in 2009. Maurine’s life was centered around the love for her family. She was known by many for her excellent cooking and baking. Her personal favorite was ice cream and chocolate. Education was a priority and she was always interested in how and what you were doing in school. “Wheel of Fortune” was her favorite TV show.
