      He died on April 3, 2019 at St. Mary's Hospital in Rochester.

      Dorrance graduated from Stanley High School. He lettered in football, basketball and baseball all while his love of golf was blossoming. He studied English at Minot State Teacher's College for a year

      prior to entering the military. He was stationed in South Korea and earned extra money for his mom through the tutoring of a Korean banker.

      He was honorably discharged from the Army, moved home to Stanley to help support his mom, and went to work at the local funeral home in Stanley.

      In 1970, he went back to college at Montana State (studying Fish and Wildlife Biology).

      He married Janice Berntson in 1971.

      Following retirement, he painted houses, delivered baby chicks and worked for the census bureau but most of his time was spent with family and friends.

      Dorrance will be remembered for his smile. His love for family and friends was genuine and he treated everyone around him with kindness and grace. He loved time with his grandkids, playing a round of golf, fishing, hunting and reading.
