Aud was born in Tronheim, Norway to William and Ella (Erikstad) Klaveness and moved to New Orleans in 1923-1924 after her father joined the Vaccaro Line, a Honduras registered steamship company that carried tropical fruits and plants for the American Fruit & Steamship Corp.
In March 1942, Captain William Klaveness was lost at sea when his ship, the S. S. Ceiba, was torpedoed by a German submarine, U-124, off the coast of New Jersey.
Also in 1942, Aud met her future husband, Lt. Richard L. Cutshall, of Allentown, at a church event in New Orleans and they were married in December 1942.
After the war, Aud and her husband moved to Allentown and they had three children while Richard created an insurance and advertising business. This company continued to thrive even after Richard contracted polio in 1952.
Mrs Cutshall was widowed in 1982 after 39 years of marriage and died at age 91 at Whitehall Manor. Her mother, brothers Alf and Odd, and a daughter, Kristin Colarusso also preceded her in death. She was survived by another daughter, a son and her twin sister, Gerd Klaveness of New Orleans.
