Loren D. Mahler

It is with tremendous sadness after a valiant and courageous battle with a long and painful illness that we announce the passing of Loren D. Mahler on Monday, October 23, 2023, at the age of 51.

Loren will also be fondly remembered by his six siblings, Cheryl (Jeff) Cabanaw, Pamela (Kurt) Siebert, Kathie (Clay) Nash, Nancy Mahler, Ronald (Brenda) Mahler, and Lora Mahler. 

“Favorite” Son-in-law of the late Otto (Carol) Hartl Sr. Dearest brother-in-law of Otto (Tammy) Hartl Jr., and the late Kurt Hartl Sr. Cherished uncle of many nieces & nephews. 

A husband and father like you is rare, one that is so generous, smart and kind. A husband and father like you is what everyone needs, full of smiles and laughter, always doing great deeds. Nothing can replace a husband and father like you, but when you get to heaven, God will be lucky to have you too. You'll be greatly missed and forever in our hearts.
