Dorothy was born on January 14, 1921 at Creighton, NE. to Henry and Emma (Zobel) Poppe. She returned to the West Point/Hooper/Scribner area and later lived with the Fred and Anna Von Seggern family until her marriage to Irvin Wobken on June 30, 1941. After his death, she married Hans Clausen on March 12, 1976. She was a member of St. John's Lutheran Church (Cuming County Line) in Scribner and later First Lutheran Church in Fremont where she enjoyed the fellowship of the Solo's group.
Dorothy spent much of her life as a homemaker and working various jobs. She enjoyed sewing, tending to her flowers, gardening, handiwork, and playing cards. She loved to bake and visitors were always welcomed to her home with a cup of coffee and a cookie. Most of all, she loved to spend time with her family and enjoyed attending the grandchildren's activities. Her faith in God made her a stronger person and she was a wonderful example to everyone who knew her.
