Lucina was born in Bismarck, ND to Henry and Agnes (Wehri) Palenberg on March 1, 1930. She was raised and educated in Glen Ullin then continued her education at Fargo High School. After marrying Adam Bullinger on September 3, 1951, they lived in Glen Ullin where they ran Henry’s Bar. They later moved to Mandan in 1955 where she and Adam raised their family. She bartended part-time at Pioneer Tavern in Mandan for her brother, Roger. She also ran a day care out of her home for several years, enjoying the many children she took care of.

Always keeping busy, Lu enjoyed crocheting and embroidering. She was also an avid card player to keep her mind sharp. Arts and crafts were always a hobby for Lu, as it was something she could enjoy with her kids and grandkids. She had a great interest in cooking chicken and numerous baked goods. Although she was very lucky to have much of her family living near her, she always enjoyed traveling to other states to visit.

Collins, CO; sons, Clair (Glenda) Bullinger, Minot, ND; Gary Bullinger, Bismarck and Calvin (Kim) Bullinger, Mandan; grandchildren, Angela and Brian Meagher, Justin Bullinger, Brooke and Shea Rose. Keri (Rocky) Epperson, Casey (John) Totenhagen, and Jamie and Jordan Bullinger; great grandchildren, Jake Miller and Elsa Totenhagen; sisters-in-law, Theresa Palenberg, Brownsville, TX and Alice Palenberg, Bismarck.

 

Lu was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Adam Bullinger who died in 1994; son, Charles Bullinger; two brothers, Roger and Donald Palenberg; and son-in-law, Patrick Meagher.
