Pauline B. Doop was born on December 8, 1931, near Bruce, SD, the daughter of Calvin Omar and Gertrude J. (Gerdes) Doop.
Pauline grew up along with ten siblings on the farm which is now Oakwood Lakes State Park going to country grade school in Preston District #111 all eight years. She went to Brookings High School her freshman year, and graduating from the Bruce High School in 1950. After her graduation she worked at National Tea Grocery Store and Brookings International Life Insurance Company.

They lived in Tacoma, WA for 18 months. Pauline worked at the Internal Revenue there. Dorance was reassigned to Tokyo, Japan for 18 months, so Pauline and daughter Debra moved back to Brookings to live. When he returned, they moved to Chandler, AZ until Dorance’s discharge in March of 1956. Since that time, they have made Brookings (Someplace Special) their home. They celebrated 60 wonderful years of marriage in October of 2012. Dorance died on January 23, 2013.
Pauline devoted her life to their marriage and being a stay at home mom, raising their four children that God had blessed them with. Besides doing a lot of sewing in the past, she now collects dolls, old coins, has made family history books on both parent’s side for their children. Her photo books are her pride and joy. She always has a camera in her purse.
