Dorothy Luella Haradon was born December 30, 1928 in Minnesota City, MN to Clarence and Pearl (Stephan) Haradon. She was baptized in Minnesota City, and moved to the Lake City area with her family where she attended and graduated from St. John's Lutheran School. Dorothy was confirmed at St. John's Lutheran Church in Lake City. On March 15, 1947 she married Arland Adler in Lake City.

Dorothy was employed by Durkee Atwood in Red Wing for 20 years; and then worked at Pepin Heights Orchard in Lake City for 15+ years, and was a janitor for St. John's Lutheran Church in Frontenac for 13 years. She retired when she turned 83, but still kept busy selling her homemade jelly and jams at the Farmers Market in Lake City. Dorothy was a member of St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Frontenac.

Dorothy loved to go camping with her family, she also traveled a lot with her sisters, and loved their fishing trips. She enjoyed planting and caring for her garden and canning the produce for her family, and to sell at the farmers markets. Dorothy always said, "God blessed me with a very good life."
