Dorothy Marie Lundt was born on April 4, 1943, in Green Bay, Wisconsin, the daughter of the late Adolph and Emma (Olson) Peterson of Navarino. She graduated from Bonduel High School in 1962. On October 3, 1964, Dorothy was united in marriage to Carl Earl Lundt at Ascension Lutheran Church in Navarino.
