Jorgenson & Miller AA/FD ~ Runner-Up Finish at Texas Motorplex ~ Saturday, April 11, 2026

 

A wild finish in the “B Field” Nitro Chaos final at Texas Motorplex saw Brian Kohlman edge out Jonn Kostelecky for the win. Just beyond the finish line, Kohlman’s Street Fuel Coupe suffered a catastrophic transmission failure, causing him to lose control and strike the guard wall. The car then rolled onto the driver’s side and erupted in flames. Fortunately, the fire was quickly extinguished, and Kohlman was able to exit the vehicle under his own power, though he suffered second-degree burns to his upper body. Thankfully, the Jorgenson and Miller dragster avoided contact with Kohlman’s car.

Irvin Mohr

October 11, 1944 — March 11, 2026

Viborg, SD

Irvin Mohr, 81 of Viborg, passed away on March 11, 2026, at the Good Samaritan Nursing Home in Scotland. A graveside service will be held at a later date.

Irvin was born on October 11, 1944, to John and Helen (Stubbe) Mohr in Parker, SD. He graduated from Parker High School in 1962 and went on to work on the family farm. In 1964, he married Dorothy DeBoer, and together they had three sons. In 1985, he married Jacqueline Townsend. Although they did not have children together, he lovingly helped raise her six children as his own.

Irvin spent his career working as a local Farm Hand (Hurley & Viborg area), Grain Elevator Operator (Davis Elevator), and spent over 20 years at Huber Home Improvement in Viborg, SD. During his retirement, he enjoyed helping and driving asphalt truck for his son Dan with ProSeal, Inc out of Mitchell, SD.

Irvin’s legacy of humor, friendship, and devotion will be carried forward by those who had the privilege of knowing him. To know him was to call him a friend. He had a rare gift for turning every handshake into a friendship, and he never considered anyone a stranger-only people he had not gotten to know yet. His remarkable life will forever be an inspiration powered by humor, “MacGyver” skillset, and Irvin’s willingness to give a helping hand.

Irvin is preceded in death by his parents John & Helen Mohr, brother Alvin Mohr, and sister Ruth Lundblade.

He is survived by one brother, Warren(Julie) Mohr of Hartford, SD, two sisters, Dawn (Kim)Berens of Parker, SD; Denise (Gary) Hanten of Parker, SD; three sons, Tim (Margaret) Mohr of Louisa, VA, {3 grandchildren, 1 great grandchild}; Steve (Kristin) Mohr of Wakonda, SD, {3 grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren}; Dan (Becky) Mohr of Mitchell, SD {3 grandchildren}; two sons, Carl (Amber) Heinz of Lennox, SD {2 grandchildren}, Will(Sara) Ericksen of Sioux Falls, SD {3 grandchildren, 8 great grandchildren}; and four daughters, Charlotte Russell of Hills, MN {1 grandchildren, 1 great grandchild}; Mary (Craig) Westrom of Sioux Falls, SD {6 grandchildren, 1 great grandchild}, Julie Husaboe of Sioux Falls, SD {3 grandchildren, 8 great grandchildren}, Carla (Mark) McConnell of Yankton, SD { 4 grandchildren}.

Irvin leaves behind special friends, Wayne Witzel, Gerald Westergaard, as well as a special neighbor, Steve Bendt. In addition, Irvin is remembered by many extended family members and friends who will deeply miss him.
