James “Jim” Herman Schreiber, age 93, passed away peacefully with his family by his side on Sunday, June 28, 2026. He was born in Sheboygan on March 2, 1933 to the late Herman and Helen (Seybold) Schreiber.

A proud American from a young age, Jim earned a scholarship and was enrolled in the Army ROTC program at Bowling Green State University. He was a member of the Delta Upsilon Fraternity. He earned his Bachelor's Degree in 1955, becoming a 1st Lieutenant in the United States Army, and honorably serving his country both home and overseas from 1956- 1958. Following his military service, he met his true love, Patricia “Patty” Bemis. On July 8, 1961, Jim and Patty were united in marriage and eventually settled in the Sheboygan area. Together, they raised five children: Lisa, Mary, Jim, Steve, and Tom. Jim also worked as an accountant and retired from C. Reiss Coal Company in Sheboygan.

Jim loved to travel. He and Patty spent many winters in Estero, Florida, enjoying the beautiful weather and naps in the sun. He was also a sports enthusiast, and was an active member of Pine Hills Country Club playing Tennis, Golf, and Handball. He played water volleyball, and was known as Mr. Clean. Jim loved music, especially Jazz, and his favorite song was, “Girl from Ipanema.” Above all, Jim loved spending time with his family, and was an especially proud Papa to his many grandchildren. They will remember fondly the big family Sunday dinners that brought everyone together. Grandpa’s #1-100 game was always a favorite memory. He will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Jim is survived by his five children: Lisa (Chris) Lohmann of Boulder, CO; Mary (Michael) Sellinger of Elkhart Lake, WI; Jim (Lisa) Schreiber of Greenwood Village, CO; Steven (Anne) Schreiber of Denver, CO; Tom (Robin) Schreiber of Franklin, TN; 16 grandchildren: Ian Crocker and Tia (Harry) Sinclair-Kemp; Madi and Gwen Lohmann; Elli (Tobia) Martens, Brigitte and Riley Sellinger; Ben, Lucy and Nick Schreiber; Isabel, Olivan, and Amelia Schreiber; Eva, Catherine, and TC Schreiber; four great-grandsons Rafi, Wilbur and Zephyr Sinclair-Kemp, and the newest baby Theo Martens. He is further survived by his sisters-in-law Mary Lou Schreiber and Mary Louise “Lulu” (Joel) Lubbers; brother-in-law Richard (Kris) Bemis; step-sister Linda Ottenman, and many other nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.

In addition to his parents, Jim is preceded in death by his wife Patty, his siblings Donald (Gloria) Schreiber, Audrey (Bill) Griffall, and John Schreiber; his sisters-in-law Rogene Schreiber, Cathy Stayer, Sarah Mabey; his brothers-in-law Peter Bemis, Steve (Katy) Larson, and Tom Ottensman; and nephew Austen Bemis.
