Doris Marie Hahn, 83, of Middle Amana passed away in her home on May 6, 2025.

A visitation will be held at Powell Funeral Home in Marengo on Thursday, May 15 from 4-7 pm.

A private Hahn/Koch family graveside service will be held Friday, May 16 at the Middle Amana Cemetery.

Doris was born on June 14, 1941, in Louisville, Kentucky to August and Madge Harroun Koch. She married Jack Hahn on September 3, 1960, in the Amana Church, in a ceremony officiated by Jack’s father, Carl F. Hahn. She and Jack ran the Hahn Bakery in Middle Amana from 1968 until Jack’s death in 1997, after which she ran the bakery by herself until she retired in December of 2023.

Doris is survived by two daughters, Linda and husband Jim Brecht and Lori and husband Glenn Rozeboom; a brother, William and wife Mollie Koch; a sister, Grace Patricia Bahr; two grandchildren, Grant and wife Leah Rozeboom and Lincoln and wife Alannah Rozeboom; three great-grandchildren, Anton Rozeboom, Eliana Rozeboom, and Jack Rozeboom, and many nieces and nephews and great-nieces and -nephews.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Jack Hahn, her parents, August Koch and Madge Koch Price, two brothers, August Koch Jr. and Danny Koch, three brothers-in-law, Fred Hahn, Orville Bahr, and Clifford Trumpold, four sisters-in-law, Sally Koch, Ellie Koch, Rozella Hahn and Caroline Trumpold, a niece, Vickie Bahr, a nephew, Randy Bahr and a great-nephew, Jason Hahn.

All who visited the bakery will remember her smile and warm welcome as much as her delicious baked goods. She was generous with her time and resources, modeling the love and charity that were central to her Christian faith. She cheered for the Hawkeyes and the Kentucky Wildcats, and she traveled to countless games, meets, concerts, and recitals to watch her children and grandchildren in action. Her kindness and laughter were gifts and will be sorely missed.

A Memorial Fund has been established for the family.
