Lee Roy Hugo Schievelbein, age 89 of Seguin, passed away on February 26, 2024. Lee Roy was born on October 22, 1934, in Guadalupe County, Texas to Lucille (Friedeck) and Robert Ferdinand Schievelbein Sr.

Lee Roy loved his Lord and Savior and went peacefully home with him while his children were by his side. He also loved his family very much and always put them first, whether that was leading Boy Scout Troop 107 as "Mr. Chief", or longtime sponsor with Jody of Luther League at Emmanuel's Lutheran, and to scheduling vacations with Jody and one grandchild at a time going wherever the grandchild chose. 9 times out of 10 it was a week at the beach.  As much as he loved his grandchildren, he loved his great-grandchildren even more and loved to interact with them as much as possible.

Lee Roy was a 46+ year employee of SMI with most of those years in Sales. Well known for his "storytelling," some call them jokes, Lee Roy had many of his customers who called daily just to get the "story of the day" and usually ended up buying more steel while he had them on the phone.

Lee Roy was very appreciative and thankful to everyone who cared for him during the last few months. He made sure to always express his gratitude to all the doctors, nurses, and caregivers, especially his daughter Cathy, who put her life on hold so she could be his primary caregiver.

Lee Roy and Jody enjoyed membership in the Happy Soles Square Dance Club, participating in the Roadrunner Camping Group, and attending events their grandchildren and great-grandchildren participated in.

LeeRoy is preceded in death by his loving wife of 66 years, Johanna "Jody" Green Schievelbein, his parents, sister Betty Merz, and brother Robert Schievelbein Jr.
