About Dorothy

Dorothy Lois Pohl passed away peacefully at Care Age Home in Park Rapids on April 10th, 2024.

She was born May 27th, 1936, in Hubbard County, the second youngest of twelve to Edward and Deana Bliss. Her journey began with humble roots, walking miles to school up hill both ways. If you ever mentioned she looked good, her response would be, “I was always good looking.”

In 1957, she married the boy across the road, Phillip, her lifelong companion in adventure and love. Together, they embraced life hunting, dancing, fishing, camping, and savoring country music. They ran a thriving dairy farm, raising three children and fostering a love for nature through the generations.

In retirement, they explored the open road, relishing in the joys of family and their many activities of grandchildren at county fairs, horse shows and sporting events. Dorothy’s legacy of strength, warmth, and boundless love lives on in the garden of our hearts.

Survived by three children Tom (Eva) of Nevis, Donna (Scott) of Grey Eagle, Donald of Moose Lake, sisters Myrte Jehoich and Mate Graunke, five grandchildren, Jeannine (Juan), Amy, Amber (Karson), Evan, and seven great-grandchildren, Jesselyn, Jayce, Jax, Jemma, Hailey, Keegan, Jayvin and many nieces and nephews.

She is proceeded in death by her husband Phillip in 2010, parents, siblings Marie, Luella, Rose, Dena, Ed, Fred, Bill, Ruthie and Margaret.
