Dorlan J. "Booge" Einfalt, Jr., 68, passed away unexpectedly in his home January 18, 2023, of natural causes.
Born July 8, 1954 in Mishawaka, IN, he was the son of the late Dorlan J. Einfalt, Sr. and Mary Ann (Kedik) Einfalt. His brother, Jim Einfalt, also preceded him in death.
On September 10, 1983, Booge married the love of his life, Linda Marie Stopczynski and this year would have been their 40th wedding anniversary. He was her knight in shining armor. To their union, they were blessed with two children, Liz and Kyle Einfalt. Also left to cherish his memory are his three siblings, Ron and Robert (Joyce) Einfalt and Jan (Mike) Deka; and many loving nieces and nephews.
Booge was a long-time truck driver for ABF Freight, before his retirement in 2016. He was a very loving and devoted husband and father. He enjoyed going to the gym, softball, golf, and NASCAR, and he was a superb cook, but he most loved to make people laugh. He was a gifted comedian by nature. He leaves many great memories for his family and friends, and he will be dearly missed.
Visitation will be held on Thursday, January 26, from 1-3 p.m., with the funeral immediately following at 3pm, at the McGann Hay, Granger Chapel, 13260 SR 23, enter off Cherry Rd., with Msgr. William Schooler officiating.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made the Meow Mission, 2915 E Mishawaka Ave, South Bend, IN 46615.
