A memorial service will be held 1:00 PM Saturday, October 24 at George Boom Funeral Home, Sioux Falls. A celebration of Doug’s life will follow at Callaway’s. Doug was born to Christ and Alice Derheim in Valley City, ND on July 12, 1936. In late December 1958, he married the former Carol Gusaas from Hastings, ND. Doug enjoyed a remarkable 35-year career with Land O’Lakes in a variety of positions working his way through the ranks, finally retiring as the receiving manager for Lakeside Dairy in Sioux Falls. In semi-retirement, Doug enjoyed over-the-road trucking for others and owning his own Kenworth. He also spent several years as a motor coach driver transporting tours all over the United States. Doug accepted a transfer with Land O’Lakes from Valley City, ND to Lake Benton, MN in the mid 70’s. It was there he was School Board President and enjoyed life on the lake with his family. In the early 80’s a move to rural Sioux Falls became the home he enjoyed through the end of his life. Doug may be best remembered by his recent neighbors as the “sheriff” of Pine Lake Hills. It was there, over 32 years of residence, that he was an active participant in the homeowners association, community well, and ensuring fellow resident’s lawn mowers were always tuned and their snow blowers always at the ready. Those who knew Doug also appreciated the legacy of gardening he and his wife of 53 years, Carol, who preceded him in death, had in their backyard. He’d share almost anything but his precious asparagus. If you received asparagus from Doug, you truly were a favored person. As he grew on in years, Doug enjoyed the coming of great grand-children, mall walking with his buddies, traveling to see his sons in California and Florida and his daughter in Minnesota and taking each day as a blessing. Grateful for having shared Doug’s life are his five children, Randy Derheim and his wife, Pam, Sioux Falls, SD, Cindy Mark and her husband, Stefan, Askov, MN, James Derheim and his wife, Jenean, Sarasota, FL, and identical twins, Brian Derheim, San Diego, CA and Barry Derheim, Brandon, SD; six grandchildren, Courtney Wright, Dallas Wright, Levi Wright and Shawna Ward, Cassandra Mark, Nicole Mark, Robin Vann; and two great-grandchildren, Joshua Wright and Hannah Collis. Of special note is special friend, companion and member of his care team; June Albers, Sioux Falls, SD. Doug’s surviving siblings include his brothers, Robert Derheim, Valley City, ND, Rick Derheim and his wife, Tammy, Valley City, ND, Arlie Braunberger and his wife, Pat, Valley City, ND, Jerry Braunberger and his wife, Cherry, Springfield, OR; his sisters, Della Robinson and her husband, Lee, Dassel, MN, Ellen Wangrud, Anoka, MN, Connie Lobitz, Glencoe, MN; and a host of other relatives and friends. In addition to his wife, Carol, Doug was preceded in death by his parents; his step-mother, Caroline; two sisters, Carol Hirschkorn, Delores Frydenlund; and an infant brother. The family would like to extend their praise and appreciation for the men and women at Sanford Hospital, Good Samaritan Center and Sanford Hospice Cottage, who provided care for Doug from the time an expected prognosis for pneumonia suddenly became diagnosed as Stage IV cancer. Their professionalism, care and compassion for Doug in his final weeks of life were instrumental in providing the comfort his dignified passing required.
