Roberta Ellen Schnoebelen passed away January 11, 2011 peacefully at Ellett Memorial Hospital in Appleton City, Missouri at the age of 92.

Roberta was the daughter of George and Corda (Daniels) Vannoy born September 27, 1918 in Butler, Missouri. She was one of seven children. Roberta said of herself that as a child she was quite the funny girl. She also remembered being into a lot of mischief and tormenting her mother. Her first job was copying records for the government. During World War II she worked in the telephone office and following the war she met and married her first husband Mr. Blaylock. They operated a taxi service out of their home in Butler and oddly enough, Roberta was the driver and he was the dispatcher. They were married for 13 years until his passing.

On August 28, 1958 she married Adrian Schnoebelen, her husband of 48 years, at St Patrick's Catholic Church in Butler. Roberta and Adrian bought the farm where Adrian was raised and lived there until 1977 when they moved to Montrose, Missouri. She had many different types of employment including hospital assistant, worker for an abstract office and an insurance company.

Roberta was a member of Immaculate Conception Catholic Church. She enjoyed gardening and tending to her flowers. She had stated, "All I did was work, get married and take care of my husbands. I loved gardening and canning. I canned all kinds of stuff and a bunch of it."

Roberta was preceded in death by her parents, her husbands, two brothers, Chester Vannoy and Lee Vannoy; four sisters, Gertrude Griffin, Veta Keshner, Alice McFeeters and Virginia Mears.

Roberta is survived by a nephew William Mears and wife Muriel and one neice Vonda Mears.
