Loren Dobbs Obituary
Loren was a machinist and worked for the BMO Center. He loved fishing, camping, the Chicago Bears, White Sox and was an avid pool player.
He was a member of Ross Pearson VFW #5149, IOV Independent Order of Vikings, The Asatru Alliance and the AFAR Viking Group.
Loren is survived by his son, Aiden Dobbs; mother, Sarah Dobbs; father, Larry Dobbs (deceased); sisters, Cherin (Kimo) Tetzlaff, Gina (Andy) Bomkamp, Kayla Dobbs and Justin Cebas; along with several nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles, and many friends.
When he shall die, Take him and cut him out in little stars. And he will make the face of heaven so fine that all the world will be in love with night and pay no worship to the garish sun: Shakespeare
Cattle die, kinsmen die, the self must die; I know one thing which never dies: The reputation of each man: Havamal 76.
I love you Dad. Go in peace dear son.

We are so very sorry for your loss. May he forever be a Guardian Angel to those he leaves behind.
"Viking Warrior Funeral Prayer"
Lo, There do I see my Father
Lo, There do I see my Mother and
My Brothers and my Sisters
Lo, There do I see the line of my people back to the beginning
Lo, They do call to me
They bid me take my place among them in the halls of Valhalla
Where thine enemies have been vanquished
Where the brave shall live Forever
Nor shall we mourn but rejoice for those that have died the glorious death.
