Corinne Mueller Obituary

Corinne J. "Cook" Mueller, 92, passed away on Monday, Dec. 6, 2010 in Hanford after a lengthy illness.

Corinne was born on August 4, 1918 in St. Louis, MO, the youngest child of Charles and Clara Hartman.

She was preceded in death by her parents and brother, Thomas Hartman, sisters Angeline Horras, Catherine McMillen and Genevieve Hartman, as well as by grandsons, Tom Mueller Jr. and Mark Mueller.

She is survived by three sons and one daughter, Michael Mueller and wife Vicki of Auberry, David Mueller and wife Charlene, Tom Mueller and Corinne Bettencourt and husband Bob of Hanford, together with nine grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.

Corinne's greatest joy was being with family. She was a devoted mother who made many sacrifices for her children. She was funny, quick-witted and a hard worker. She worked many years at Peden's Restaurant and later the Koop Cafe. She especially loved working in her garden.

She will be dearly missed.

At Corinne's request, services will be private.

Cook, how you will missed. You were loved by so many people.I will always remember our fun trips through the Home Tours and driving Corrine crazy. Will always remember you sneaking a couple cookies for son Michel and giggle about it. We go back a long time and you were part of my family. May you be at Peace and remember you will never be forgotten.

You are and always will be the best Momma, sister and friend- all rolled into one. How we enjoyed jumping in the car and taking our daily "Spin" and stopping at a garage sale or two. Thank you for always being there for us.
Love, Corinne & Bobby
