Prudy worked as a medical transcriptionist for MMC in Ashland for five years. She also worked as a realtor for Von Hollen Realty and cook at the Drummond schools. She also served as the president of the Drummond H.S. Booster Club.

Prudy loved Lake Superior. She would take long walks along the beach picking up agates, sea glass and rocks. In the winter she enjoyed taking walks to the Apostle Island Ice caves. She was an avid bowler and golfer and enjoyed doing both with her friends. She also took several memorable trips to the Black Hills and Alaska for camping, fishing and lots of fun. She loved her grandchildren dearly and looked forward to the times together.

She is survived by her husband, Tim; sons, Brandon and Jacob (Heidi) Mott; seven grandchildren; mother, Ellie Rautio; brother, Allen (Lenora) Rautio; and a niece and nephew.
