Harriet Dahl

Age 83 of Forest Lake. Loving wife, mom, grandma, great-grandma. Passed away peacefully at home surrounded by family on June 14, 2021. Harriet cherished the time spent with Ken, and adored her nine grandkids. She enjoyed life to the fullest, and was always planning the next holiday gathering or birthday celebration for her family and friends, and was excited whenever her wayward kids would come home. Harriet loved to travel with Ken and her family throughout the United States and overseas, but especially relished the infamous trips to Breezy Point in Canada with her Forest Lake crew. She loved Spring, and couldn’t wait for her yard to be filled with the annual assortment of colorful flowers and plants. In addition to being the consummate night owl, she was also an avid reader and up to date on all current events, and was rarely found without the next book or daily newspaper. She was a lifelong member of the DAR, and wanted every granddaughter to follow in her footsteps. Harriet was always up for a shopping trip, and would recruit anyone (usually Kathy) for an opportunity for scouring her favorite haunts for the perfect chotchke! Preceded in death by parents, Harry & Irene Hansen; brother, Doug Hansen. Survived by loving husband of 53 years, Ken; children, Doug (Amy) Callahan, Shawn (Wendy), Kathy Weaver, Kristin (Mike) Tyler; grandchildren, Brynn, Brandt, Brock, Madeleine, Ashley, Matthew, Johnathan, Hunter, Brooke; great-grandson, Roman; nephews, other relatives & friends.
