Mary (Hamling) Schiebner 
September 14, 1954 – November 11, 2026

Mary Schiebner, of Saginaw, Michigan, passed away November 11, 2026, leaving behind a lifetime of love, lasting memories, and a family who will forever carry her in their hearts.

Born on September 14, 1954, in Saginaw, Michigan, Mary was the daughter of the late Stanley W. and Grace (Barrow) Hamling.

On September 8, 1973, Mary married the love of her life, Donald Kevin Schiebner, at S.S. Peter and Paul Parish in Saginaw, Michigan. Together, they began a beautiful journey that would span more than 53 years of marriage, building a life centered around love, family, and their shared faith.

Together, Mary and Don raised their four treasured sons, Donald Alan, Michael, Matthew, and Jonathan. Family remained an important part of Mary's life, and she took pride in the family she and Don built together. As their family grew, Mary welcomed eleven grandchildren, each holding a special place in her heart. Her love extended to her siblings, nieces, nephews, and extended family, whose presence added to the many meaningful relationships throughout her life.

Mary was also a longtime employee of the Dow Event Center, where she served as Box Office Manager for many years. Outside of work, Mary enjoyed an active life and found happiness in many of life's simple pleasures. Over the years, she loved skiing, boating, bike riding, and golfing, embracing opportunities to spend time outdoors. She also had a special place in her heart for animals and found joy in their companionship. These interests and experiences were part of the life she enjoyed and the memories she leaves behind.

Mary is survived by her devoted husband, Donald; her four sons, Donald Alan (Kelli) Schiebner, Michael (Amanda) Schiebner, Matthew (Crystal) Schiebner, and Jonathan (Erin) Schiebner; and her eleven grandchildren, Logan, Kiersten, Ava, Cohen, Keira, Pierce, Madison, Makayla, Travis, Jade, and Henrik.

She is also survived by her siblings, Duane (Janet) Hamling, Veronica (Hamling) Smith, Gregg (Becky) Hamling, and Larry Hamling, along with extended family and loved ones.

Mary was preceded in death by her parents, Stanley W. Hamling and Grace (Barrow) Hamling, and her brother-in-law, Thomas Smith.

Though her family must now say goodbye, the love Mary gave throughout her life will remain in the hearts of those who knew her. Her legacy lives on in the family she and Don built, the memories they shared, and the faith and love that guided their years together.

In keeping with Mary's wishes and her lifelong love of animals, the family strongly encourages memorial contributions to the Humane Society of Saginaw County or Undercover Angels Animal Rescue of Saginaw in lieu of flowers. Honoring Mary through a gift that helps animals in need would be a meaningful tribute to her life.

Visitation will be held at St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church, 5376 State St., Saginaw, Michigan, 48603 on Saturday, November 14, 2026, beginning at 9:00 a.m., followed by a Mass of Christian Burial at 10:00 a.m. Following the Mass, Mary will be laid to rest at St. Andrew Cemetery.
