Astrid Andersen passed away on December 21, 2024 at the young age of 96. She was born in Nipe, Norway on Christmas Day in 1927, one of 10 children. At the age of 19 she emigrated to Brooklyn, New York where she married and raised her family. Astrid took an active role in the Norwegian community and was a proud member of the Sons of Norway, Faerder Lodge 109. Astrid, for many years, represented them by carrying the flag in the Norwegian Day parade. Astrid was also a proud member of the Church Bowling League for over 40 years until the pandemic hit and ended her run at 92 years old. Astrid has always been known for her love of physical fitness where she was a fixture on the Shore Road promenade as well as swimming laps in the ocean and cross country skiing in Bliss Park. Astrid was predeceased by her husband Anders (1999). She is survived by her children Glenn Andersen, Debbie Maguire (Robert) and her loving grandsons, Robbie and Mark who meant the world to her.
