Michael Debs Shoberg

I would like to extend my condolences to the family of Mr Shoberg. I worked for him back in 1973 in the business office at NMSU. He was my very first employer. I had just finished going to a business college in Albuquerque. He told "well you have to start working somewhere ". I worked there for a year. He was a great boss. I will never forget him. May God bless you all during this sad time.

We are sorry for your loss and wish our best for the Shoberg family. Miss you all from TKD. The Greene family.

Our Condolences

Rest in peace Mike! My condolences to your family.

I enjoyed Mike's down to earth ease and his humorous quips. When he was a referee at martial art tournaments, he had a calm commanding presence that took charge of the ring. I always enjoyed the funny times talking with Mike when socializing outside of the dojang with his family. Peace be with you and your family.

Being his brother-in-law, I got to see how helpful Mike was to his family, and particularly to my mother. Mike was laid-back, but a hard worker. One of my favorite memories was hunting deer with Mike south of Weed, New Mexico for quite a few years. One time we were hunting Salt Rock Canyon and we split up. Hours later from across the canyon I saw Mike, in an opening in the trees. He was on the ground. I watched him not move for a while and became concerned. I worked my way down the mountain...
