Emily Elisabeth Snibbe

Our beautiful daughter Emily Elisabeth Snibbe, of Brockton, Pennsylvania passed away on Tuesday, June 10, 2025 suddenly at home.

Born February 7, 2011 in Kansas City, Kansas she is survived by her parents, Sean W. and Sarah M. (Roberts) Snibbe; siblings, Noah W., and Molly M. Snibbe; maternal grandparents, Rev. Kevin Roberts and his wife Danette; paternal grandparents, Michelle L. Curwen and her husband Paul; Scott W. Snibbe and his wife Christine; paternal great grandmother, Kathleen Chan. Many aunts, uncles and cousins also survive Emily.

A vivacious 14 year old, Emily was inquisitive, funny, perhaps a little nosy into her siblings affairs; however her vibrant personality and fortitude allowed her to be loved by many and deemed "The Mayor" of the West Penn Elementary School during her tenure. Emily was a member of her grandfather's church Bethany E.C.C. of Tamaqua and loved attending youth group and Bible School. "Alexa play" was a constant command coming from Emily's room as she requested music from all genres from Broadway Musicals, to Pop, to Country Music. Singing along, tapping on the drums or learning to play Ukulele. Emily enjoyed attending the Tamaqua Area Drama Club plays with her Mom & sister, collecting one play bill after the next. 

As a family we are devastated; however, so blessed to have had Emily for these 14 years. As you often said; We love you to the moon & back, We'll miss immensely, We will carry you in our hearts and minds every day until we see you again, our brown eyed girl. Please give our love to your grandmother, Nora Roberts who passed away in 1990.
