Roebke, Sandra L.
Sunday, October 6, 2013, the Lord called Sandra L. Roebke of Lomira to her heavenly home.
She was born on August 2, 1945, in Green Bay, the daughter of the late Herbert and Alma (Giese) Roebke. Her parents brought her to be baptized at St. John's Lutheran Church in Wrightstown.
Sandra attended public school from grades 1-5 and St. John's Lutheran School for grades 6-8, where she was also confirmed in the Christian faith. She was a 1963 graduate of Fox Valley Lutheran High School in Appleton and enrolled at Wisconsin Lutheran Teacher's College in Milwaukee to prepare for Christian teaching. Sandra went on to complete her studies at Dr. Martin Luther College in New Ulm, Minnesota. Following graduation, she was assigned to St. John's Lutheran School in Lomira where she taught for 39 years. During that time she taught different combinations of grades one through five and also served as a supervising teacher for eleven student teachers. Sandra also served on a Synod education committee as well as holding several positions on teacher conference committees. Sandra was a member of St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Lomira.
Sandra loved to travel in the United States visiting many of the states. She loved history, science and enjoyed being with family, friends, fishing and playing all kinds of cards, especially rummy.
Those Sandra leaves behind to cherish her memory include a brother, William Roebke of Crivitz; two nephews, Christopher and Scott (Darlene) Roebke both of Wrightstown; a great-nephew, Ryan Roebke of Wrightstown; two great-great-nephews, Owen Roebke of Wrightstown and Brantley Schneider of Hilbert; a niece, Karmen (Randy) Lemke of Kaukauna; five great-nieces, Amanda Roebke of Wrightstown, Kimberly (Brandon) Schneider of Hilbert, Lauren, Lindsay and Leah Lemke all of Kaukauna; a family friend, Kathleen Roebke of Wrightstown, other relatives and many special friends.

We have fond memories of the many class trips we went on while our daughters were attending St John's. Sandy always arranged great trips for her students. May she now rest in peace and know that she made a difference in our daughter's lives. Our deepest sympathy to her family.
