Mabel Reddick Feldhusen, age 79, passed away peacefully with her family by her side on October 10, 2016.
Mabel was the 6th child born to Harry and Florence (Wagner) Reddick in Opheim, Montana, on April 22, 1937. When she was 13 years old, the family moved to Glasgow.
In 1953, Mabel met Frank Feldhusen from Dallas, Texas when he was working on a surveying crew in Glasgow. They married on July 24, 1954 and shortly thereafter moved to Casper, Wyoming where they started their family. Frank started work as a draftsman and in 1958 they moved to Dallas, Texas where they had three more children. Frank became a Geologic Specialist for Atlantic Richfield and was transferred to Denver, Colorado in 1968, where they continued to raise their children; Mabel was a homemaker.
In 1990, Frank retired and they came back to where it all began, and purchased a home at St. Marie. They were married 37 years when Frank passed away in 1991.
She is preceded in death by her husband Frank; her parents Harry and Florence Reddick; brothers Robert, Roy, Jerry, John and sister Mary; sister-in-law Carol, one niece, and seven nephews including Alvie Hallock whom she loved as her own son, along with ‘Nickel Bill Wade’.
Mabel leaves behind her four children–Julie Steward and her husband Joel of Longview, Washington; Marie Parks and her husband J.C. of Littleton, Colorado; Richard Feldhusen of Portland, Oregon and Karl Feldhusen of Denver, Colorado; four grandchildren, three great grandchildren; her siblings Ed Reddick and Della Hallock of Glasgow, Donnie Reddick and his wife Lynda from Bozeman; sisters-in-law Nina Reddick of Nashua, and Eileen Reddick of Miles City; numerous nieces and nephews, her companion of over 20 years Jake Crounse of St. Marie, and her faithful four-legged companion Hermie.
Mabel loved her beer, enjoyed playing cards including Pitch and Poker, gambling in Deadwood, Irish Whiskey, her slot machine in ‘Nickel Bills’, and of course her family and friends that are too numerous to name here.
