Dora Stahlecker was the daughter of John and Barbara (Reuter) Stahlecker. She was born on June 23, 1886 at Tripp, South Dakota.

Dora married John Hauf on April 7, 1904 at Naper, Nebraska by Pastor Schnelder. Their wedding day is remembered well because a blizzard hit that day, and the wedding party and guests were stormed in at the John Stahlecker home. The storm lasted three days and three nights.

That same year they moved and homesteaded four miles south and a quarter mile west of Dallas, South Dakota. They lived in the horse barn while they built the sod house, and lived in the sod house for four or five years until they built the three room frame house. They lived on this farm until 1941, and then bought a farm north of Lucas, South Dakota.

Dora is survived by six daughters, Anna (Art) Wille, Clara (Ben) Miller, Edna (John) Mitchell, Christine (John) Sears, Martha (Harry) Deering and Frieda (Alfred) Bettcher; and six sons, Arthur Hauf, Samual (Martha) Hauf, Walter (Ruby) Hauf, Adolph (Irene) Hauf, Alva Hauf and Norman (Juanita) Hauf.

She was preceded in death by her husband, John; an infant son, Helmet; and her parents, John and Barbara Stahlecker.
