November 16, 1951 — September 18, 2013

Douglas R. Marohl, of Battle Lake, passed away at his home on Wednesday, September 18, 2013 at the age of 61.

Doug was born in Breckenridge, Minnesota on November 16, 1951 to Vernon Marohl and Audrey Muehler Marohl. He grew up in Wahpeton, North Dakota graduating from high school in 1969.

In 1975 they moved to Fergus Falls where Doug began working at Lutheran Social Services of Minnesota. In 1996 he began working for Heartland Industries of Moorhead, MN.

In 1998 Doug fulfilled a dream of starting his own business, Midwest Community Residential Services (MCRS), in Central Minnesota. Doug devoted his career to providing services for people with disabilities. He always considered his clients, their family, and his employees as his large extended family. Doug always took the time to talk and give a smile to everyone he worked with.

Doug adored his two grandchildren, Ella Mary and Benjamin Douglas of St. Cloud.
