Austin Frederick Pullman, 43, of Middletown, California, passed away due to injuries sustained in an automobile accident while at work in Glasgow, Montana.
Austin was born on May 30, 1982 in Carson City, Nevada, to Bryan and Gayle Pullman.
He graduated from Middletown High School where he was an outstanding athlete in football and basketball. He attended school in Middletown his entire life. Immediately upon graduation he started working for Calpine Corp. at the Geysers until changing over to the Northern California Power Agency, also at the Geysers, in 2011.
Above all, Austin will be remembered as a devoted husband and father. In 2009 Austin married Lindsey Corsetti and they built a loving and committed life together. They had a very strong marriage, becoming inseparable until his passing.
He was the father of three sons, Wyatt, Blake and Hank, and they are growing up to be fine young men and are a reflection of their father in looks and demeanor.
Austin is survived by his loving wife, Lindsey; and his fine sons, Wyatt, 16, Blake, 13, and Hank, 12.
Austin is also survived by his parents, Bryan and Gayle Pullman; his brother, Drew and wife Audrey Pullman and their children, Dilly, Tristin, Sawyer, Killian and Behr; his brother, Jake and wife Andrea Pullman and their children, Jamie and Jacob. He is also survived by his sister, Laurisa and her husband Keven Landman and their two children, Kyle and Bryan. He is survived by his in-laws, Rich and Lisa Corsetti, and their children. Austin is also survived by many aunts, uncles and cousins.
A year ago Austin moved with his wife and family to the south. He recently took a job at Fort Peck, Montana, where he was overhauling the hydro plant. On their way from Tennessee to Montana they fulfilled a lifelong desire of Austin’s, which was to visit Mount Rushmore.
At Fort Peck, he was inspired by the sheer size of the equipment he was working on and impressed that this was all built about 100 years ago. It was at this job that he lost his life.
Austin will be remembered for his sense of humor, his love for all of his family and for his general happy outlook on life.
He also will be remembered for his large size and strength, both physical and character. At 6’ 5” plus, he could darken a doorway. He was hardworking and helpful, both at work and at home.
Austin will be missed by all who knew and loved him!
A celebration of life will be held at 11 a.m. Feb. 28 in the Tallman Gym at Middletown High School, 20932 Big Canyon Road.
A GoFundMe account has been set up to help his wife and children.
