Hannelore Doeling
Hannelore “Lori” Selma Kolb Doeling, age 91, Carrington, ND met her savior September 26, 2024 at Golden Acres Manor in Carrington.
Hannelore was born January 13, 1933 in Pirmasens, Germany to August and Maria Kolb. Hannelore attended school in Pirmasens and Kissingen, Germany. Hannelore and her mother moved often during the war as Pirmasens was frequently bombed. Hannelore worked in a shoe factory for 10 years and in a hospital for two years to help support her family.
Hannelore met the love of her life, Gene Doeling, when he was stationed in Pirmasens in 1958. They were married April 17, 1959 in Pirmasens. They made their home on the farm, near Bordulac, ND where they raised four children. Hannelore worked many years on the farm alongside her husband. Hannelore loved gardening and loved to walk. If you ever traveled the Bordulac road, you more than likely passed her or even honked at her to get her to move to the side of the road. She was loved by her family and will be forever missed.
Hannelore is preceded in death by her parents, Maria and August Kolb; two brothers, Heiner Breier and Fred Kolb; one sister-in-law, Ericka Breier, and one son-in-law, Keith Wiest.
Hannelore is survived by her devoted husband, Gene; children, Debra, Christa (Bryan) Beach, Gene (Denise) Doeling, and Elisabeth “Lisa” (Kevin) Meyer; a nephew, Karl-Heinz Breier; grandchildren, Leah (Jason) Thoms, Ethan Beach, Harrison Wiest, Lucas Doeling, Brooklyn Wiest, Alexis Doeling, Molly Richardson; great grandchildren, Eva and Jake Thoms, and Destiny Stedman, who Hannelore considered a bonus grandchild.
Hannelore’s Visitation will be Sunday from 4:00PM-6:00PM at Evans Funeral Home, Carrington, ND.
Her Graveside Service will be held Monday, September 30, 2024, at 11:30AM at the Carrington Cemetery, Carrington.

Doeling Family, I’m sure every driver in Foster County knew who your Mother was. My Mom used to say, “all the miles Lori Doeling has walked, she has been to Germany and back”.
Prayers to you all.
My sincere condolences to Lori’s Family!
Ron and Pat Gienger
She was a wonderful woman, always a smile on her face and a kind word for you. Was always nice to visit with her.
My deepest sympathies sent to you, Gene, and your family.
Lori was one of my favorite people. She always had a smile on her face and enjoyed visiting. She will surely be missed.
I remember you as a hard worker, never complaining about all that you had to do, always busy and productive. I look fondly on my visits to the farm and to your house eating your delicious homemade pizza and looking at photos and seeing the spectacular sunset through your dining room window when my husband and daughter came with me to visit. Each time I eat an apple I think of you and how much you enjoyed them. I also remember you often on a bike or out for a walk. You will be missed.
