Margaret "Mickey" Paustenbach

met her husband, Frank, in Seattle, Washington, and married December
23, 1944. Life's adventures took them coast to coast before
finally settling in Colorado.
Mickey was a very talented and artistic woman. In her early years
she was a much sought after dress designer. She gave up her career
to concentrate on her husband and growing family of five. Mickey
was a very strong traditional Catholic and raised her family with
strong beliefs. After moving from Steamboat Springs to Hotchkiss
in 1963, Mickey and Frank proceeded to build their dream home and
start their family business, Farmer Franks. Mickey loved the farm
animals and the outdoor life while Frank ran the business.
Mickey enjoyed her family, sewing, cards, puzzles and playing
games. Lucky was the family member who ever beat her in
Scrabble! After their retirement they enjoyed their time and friends
in Arizona.
