Hubert O. Dorschner

Hubert Dorschner passed away peacefully on Tuesday, October 1, 2019, at the age of 99. Hubert was born in the town of Dale on February 13, 1920, son of the late Leonard and Norma (Zehner) Dorschner. On September 11, 1948, he married Helen Heller; she preceded him in death in 1997.

For many years, Hubert farmed in Dale, as well as working as a bricklayer for his brother-in-law during that same time. He served in the United States Navy for two years, and was proud to have been on an Old Glory Honor Flight to Washington several years ago. Hubert was a very outgoing and social man; he enjoyed going to parties with family and friends, as well as dinners at Mark’s East Side.

Hubert is survived by his daughter: Donna (Bob) Pataky of Winthrop Harbor, Illinois; two granddaughters: Danielle Pataky and Kristin (Aaron) Breen; two great-grandchildren: AJ and Faith, as well as many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, his wife Helen in 1997, and a brother Chester (Nellie) Dorschner.
