| The Wickenburg Sun, Wickenburg, AZ Oct. 18, 2006, B12 Dorothy A. Muckenhirn age 73 of Peeples Valley, Ariz., and Maple Lake, Minn., formerly of Delano, Minn., died on Tuesday, Oct. 10 at the Mercy Hospital in Coon Rapids, Minn. She was born May 9, 1933 in Winsted, Minn., to Edward and Emma (Koppel) Weibel. Dorothy was united in marriage to Robert Muckenhirn on Oct. 5, 1957 at St. Peter Catholic Church in Delano. She and Robert made their home in Delano on a farm that Dorothy cared for with a passion. She loved caring for the animals as well as growing produce in her well-kept garden. Dorothy worked for a period of seven years driving bus for Stahlke Bus Service before she and Robert went over the road, driving semi. Together they formed Triangle Enterprises, which they ran for many years before selling it to their family. Dorothy was a lady of many talents; she enjoyed creating things with her hands. Numerous knitting, quilting, and embroidery projects were the norm. Her homemade apple strudel was a favorite. Spending time with family was always a priority. Playing cards and singing became a special family memory, especially singing Karaoke in recent years. Dorothy was preceded in death by her parents, Edward and Emma Weibel. She is survived by her husband of 49 years Robert, sons Glen (Deb) Muckenhirn and James (Connie) Muckenhirn, daughter Linda (Morris) Mead, many grandchildren and great grandchildren, her sister Marie (Leroy) Moonen and sister-in-law Elizabeth (Arthur) Barthman.
