Doris Marie Hahn, 83, of Middle Amana, passed away in her home on May 6th, 2025.

Doris was born on June 14th, 1941, in Louisville, Kentucky to August and Madge Harden Koch. She married Jack Hahn on September 3rd, 1960, in the Amana Church, in a ceremony officiated by Jack’s father, Carl F. Hahn. She and Jack ran the Hahn Bakery in Middle Amana from 1968 until Jack’s death in 1997, after which she ran the bakery by herself until she retired in December of 2023.

Doris is survived by two daughters, Linda and husband Jim Brecht and Lori and husband Glenn Rozeboom, one brother, William and wife Mollie Koch, one sister, Grace Patricia Bahr, two grandchildren, Grant and wife Leah Rozeboom and Lincoln and wife Alannah Rozeboom, three great grandchildren, Anton Rozeboom, Eliana Rozeboom, and Jack Rozeboom, and many nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Jack Hahn, her parents, August Koch and Madge Koch Price, two brothers, August Koch Jr. and Danny Koch, three brothers-in-law, Fred Hahn, Orville Bahr, and Clifford Trumpold, four sisters-in-law, Sally Koch, Ellie Koch, Rozella Hahn and Caroline Trumpold, a niece, Vickie Bahr, a nephew, Randy Bahr, and a great nephew Jason Hahn.

All who visited the bakery will remember her smile and warm welcome as much as her delicious baked goods. She was generous with her time and resources, modeling the love and charity that were central to her Christian faith. She cheered for the Hawkeyes and the Kentucky Wildcats, and she traveled to countless games, meets, concerts, and recitals to watch her children and grandchildren in action. Her kindness and laughter were gifts and will be sorely missed.

Visitation will be from 4:00-7:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 15, 2025, at Powell Funeral Home in Marengo. A private family burial will be held in the Middle Amana Cemetery. A general memorial fund has been established. Powell Funeral Home in Marengo is caring for Doris and her family. Messages and tributes may be left at www.powellfuneralhomes.com
