Timothy Lee Pribyl was born on February 11, 1955, in Buffalo to Leo and Cecelia (Davis) Pribyl. He grew up and lived his entire life in Maple Lake, graduating with the Class of 1973 from Maple Lake High School. On June 19, 1976, Tim was united in marriage to Pamela Starry at St. Timothy Catholic Church, where they were both lifelong members.
Tim devoted himself to his community and his family. He was a founding employee and a former owner of MP Nexlevel. Known for his determination, he was the kind of guy who could solve the "unsolvable" and never shied away from hard work. His legacy as a mentor and friend to his employees will be remembered fondly as he led by example, embodying respect and dignity in all he did.
Outside of his professional life, Tim was a man of many passions. Whether he was water skiing, boating, or simply soaking up the sun on Maple Lake, he cherished every moment spent on the water. He loved playing golf, cheering passionately for the Minnesota Twins and Vikings, and enjoying a good game of cribbage or poker. But above all, his heart was truly happiest when surrounded by family, especially when supporting his grandkids in their sporting endeavors.
We will forever hold dear the countless memories that have been created with Tim. His legacy will live on in the love he gave and the lives he touched.
Tim is survived by his loving wife, Pam Pribyl; children, Robbi (Kelly) Pribyl of Maple Lake, Staci (Josh) Wurm of Buffalo, and Tanya (DJ) Manthie of Buffalo; grandchildren, Olivia Wolff-Herda, Maxx (Amber), Sophia and Tessa Pribyl, Wyatt and Kash Wurm, Gavin, Brogan and Sawyer Manthie; great-grandchildren, Quinn Matthees and Lucille Pribyl; siblings, Larry (Karen) Pribyl and Bonnie (Richard) Erdahl, all of Maple Lake; brothers-in-law, Daniel Wurm and Gary Carlson, both of Maple Lake; and many other relatives and friends. Tim was preceded in death by his parents, Leo and Cecelia; and sisters, Lois Carlson and Jackie Wurm.
Maxx Pribyl, Wyatt Wurm, Kash Wurm, Gavin Mathie, Brogan Manthie, and Sawyer Manthie will serve as urn bearers and Olivia Wolff-Herda, Sophia Pribyl, and Tessa Pribyl will serve as honorary urn bearers. Krista Elsenpeter and Sarah Goelz will provide the music for the service. Arrangements are entrusted with Dingmann Funeral Care Burial and Cremation Services of Maple Lake.
