Mary Kay Schnobrich was born on May 11, 1951, to Eldor and Sedonia (Teicher) Schnobrich in New Ulm. She was a 1969 graduate from the New Ulm Public High School. Mary was united in marriage to Kenneth Riebel in July of 1972. This union blessed the couple with three daughters and a son whom together they raised in Mahtomedi. Later in life, Mary moved to White Bear Lake and was recently working with RR Donnelly in Oakdale until her recent retirement in 2017. In her retirement, much of her time was spent caring for her grandchildren. There were a variety of hobbies in life that Mary dearly enjoyed. To relax, Mary loved working with her hands sewing, quilting, and doing puzzles. Mary also enjoyed to travel; one of her recent memorable get-aways was a trip she took to Aspen with her sisters to see the fall colors. What she truly loved most in life was her family. She loved every moment she got to spend with her grandchildren and great grandchild and loved to get to see them grow. Although Mary’s passing seems sudden and unexpected to all, countless cherished memories of her fun loving, joking, and giving personality will stay in the hearts and minds of all who knew her best. Blessed be her memory.
