Dale Robert Dohe passed away Sunday, June 5, 2016 at the Rooks County Health Center in Plainville, Kansas at the age of 79. He was born on February 11, 1937 in Ellsworth, Kansas, along with his twin brother Dean Arthur, to the late Benjamin Walter and Amanda Marie (Walker) Dohe. Amanda passed away in October 1942 when the boys were only 5 years old. Benjamin later married Dorothea Wacker in January 1949.
Dale grew up working on the family farm with his brother, near Bullfoot Creek, in Lincoln County, Kansas. He graduated from Vesper High School in Vesper, Kansas with the Class of 1955 and often had school friends helping with the farm work. He was married to Kay Bolte and together they had a daughter, Norma. On August 6, 1966 he was united in marriage to Marlene Louise Meyers in Stockton, Kansas. They were blessed with four children, Darin, Tonya, Kimberly, and Colleen.
Along with farming, Dale did dirt construction, before going to work for Prickett Trucking hauling cattle. He also drove truck for Schult Homes, delivering manufactured and modular homes, with Marlene driving the pilot car. Later the family worked doing custom harvesting, for a little over 5 years, until Dale’s retirement in 2006. He enjoyed coyote hunting and fishing whenever possible. He was an avid baseball fan and very talented player, having turned down the opportunity to play professional ball as a young man, because dad needed him to stay on the farm. He cheered for the Kansas City Royals, and always loved cheering even more for his grandkids at their sports and school activities.
Dale is survived by his wife Marlene Dohe of the home in Plainville; son Darin Dohe and wife Valerie of Plainville; daughters Norma Kobbeman and husband Jeff of Lincoln, Tonya Bethel of Plainville, Kimberly Houser of Plainville, and Colleen Wilkerson of Plainville; brothers Larry Dohe and wife Sharon of Lincoln, and Wayne Dohe and wife Dorene of Lincoln; sister Karen Dohe of Lincoln; grandchildren Mitchell Kobbeman, Ashton Kobbeman, Katelin Dohe, Dylan Dohe, Sterling Dohe, Tiffany Bethel, Tate Bethel, Tristan Houser, Trever Houser, Brianna Houser, Willie Wilkerson, and Reagan Wilkerson; and great-grandchildren Emily Huehl, and Lexi Plante.
He was preceded in death by his parents Benjamin and Amanda Dohe, step-mother Dorothea Burmeister, and brother Dean Dohe.
Funeral services will be at 10:30 am on Thursday, June 9, 2016 at the First Christian Church in Plainville. Burial will follow in the Sacred Heart Cemetery. Visitation will be from 1:00-8:00 pm on Wednesday at the funeral home. Family will receive friends from 6:00-7:30 pm.
Dale was a man who coupled faith with hard work, but also knew how to enjoy the fruits of his labors. Whether sharing a cold beer with friends, taking time to help neighbors, or just being with family at the end of a long day, he never grew tired of doing good; having fought the good fight, he has finished his race, kept the faith, and now rests from his labors.
