Obituary for Dorothy M. Jorgenson
Dorothy Marie Jorgenson was born to Vies and Minnie (Peterson) Martinsen February 17, 1926 in Sebeka, Minnesota.  After the death of her mother, the infant was adopted by her aunt and uncle, Inga and Axel Carlson.  Dorothy grew up on a farm near Milltown, Wisconsin.  She attended elementary school at Half Moon Lake School.  She attended and graduated from Milltown High School in 1944.  She attended Milltown Lutheran Church, went to Sunday school and was confirmed in May of 1940.  On June 16, 1944 she was united in marriage to Stanley Fred Lind.  This union was blessed with four children, Rodney, Larry, Peggy and Stacey.  They farmed the Lind family farm in Milltown Township for 23 years. 

On December 21, 1970 Dorothy married Mike Jorgenson.  They lived between Balsam Lake and Centuria.  Dorothy worked for DHIA (Polk Burnett Dairy Herd Improvement Association).  Mike died on February 10, 1987.   

After her retirement in 1990, Dorothy enjoyed traveling, gardening, needlework, photography, volunteering (Interstate Park and Interfaith Caregivers) and most of all, family.
