Madeline Lee Snively age 83, of Maryville, died Tuesday, September 30, 2025, at the family home.
Madeline was a very strong woman, known for her determination and ability to make things happen. She commanded a room, exuding authority without ever needing to say a word.
She was a devoted wife and an amazing mother, adored by her children and grandchildren. Her smile lit up with pride whenever she was around them, and her striking blue eyes will always be remembered.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Otto and Mildred Dellsite.
Survivors include her husband of 63 years, Dan Snively; daughter, Danell Varker (Bruce); sons, Brad Snively (Kelly) and Derek Snively (Nikki); brother, Howard Dellsite (Beth); eight grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.
No formal ceremonies are planned. The family will be having a private remembrance.
