Mary Jane Reisenauer was born June 29, 1946 in Dickinson, North Dakota.  She was the daughter of Jack and Barbara (Hutzenbiler) Reisenauer.  Mary grew up on the family ranch near New England, North Dakota.  She was united in marriage to Peter Hatzenbiler on June 30, 1965 in Dickinson.  To this union one son was born, Jacob.  Shortly after their marriage, Peter and Mary lived in Idaho, before settling in Williston ND in 1973.  For 34 years, Mary was at Peter’s side as they owned and operated Pete’s Truck and Salvage.  In 2011 they retired and moved to Belle Fourche where they have lived since.

Mary showed great courage and strength as she fought the effects of COPD for the past 10 years.  She was kind, loving, smart, and very caring.  She was a loving wife and grandmother, and she loved her family very much.  She will be greatly missed.

Mary is survived by her husband, Peter of Belle Fourche; son, Jacob (Kirsten) of Belle Fourche; granddaughter, Paige (John Fabris) Hatzenbiler of Sundance WY; great grandsons, Rylan and Walker; brother, Gary (Linda) Reisenauer of New England ND; and her half-brother, Ron (Beverly) Hutzenbiler of Billings MT.
