Faye was born on April 4, 1926, in rural Allison, the daughter of Harvey and Minnie (Schoeneman) Christopherson. As a child, she moved with her family to various farms around Butler County. Prior to being married, she worked at Earl Ferris Nursery and Hampton Coffee Shop.

She was united in marriage to Floyd Dohrmann on February 7, 1951, at the Little Brown Church in Nashua.

Faye attended the Aredale Gospel Hall, was a member of the Rockford Women's Club, Farm Bureau, Helping Hands Study Club, and the Owen Sewing Circle. She also was a member of their neighborhood card club and morning coffee group. She enjoyed reading, ceramics, gardening, canning and created baby quilts for each of her grandchildren. Most of all, Faye loved her family and looked forward to attending their activities, concerts, and plays.
