Margaret "Peeky" Miller Pleninger

11-16-1948 to 1-27-2021

Peeky was born November 16,1948 to Leo and Estaleda Miller at the Roundup Hospital. She grew up in a few small towns in Montana mostly in Musselshell. It was in Belfry that she met James Brown and they married in 1966. There were 2 children born to this marriage, Jimmy and Wendy. They later divorced and she raised them the only way she knew how, which was with huge amounts of love and a lot of humor.

Peeky worked at various jobs through her life but it was when she worked in the laundry department at Roundup Memorial Hospital that she went to school and became an X-Ray Tech. She stayed at Roundup Hospital until her children were raised and then she moved to Hardin and worked at the hospital there.

In the 90's she met the love of her life, Les Pleninger, and they married on August 28th, 1999. They enjoyed 21 years of marriage doing everything from camping and fishing to tearing up the hills on their snowmobiles and four wheelers. They spent the remainder of their life together on their place outside of Park City. The most important thing in Peeky's life was her family. She was the village for her children and their friends and then for her grandchildren and their friends. She was mom or grandma to many through her life, blood or not. If you needed a shoulder to cry on, a hug, a laugh, or a scolding she delivered without question.

Peeky was preceded in death by her mom and dad, her sisters Diana Webb, Sue Bothman, her brother Donald Miller, and her mother and father-in-law Martha and Stan Pleninger.
