Teresa “Terri” Dehnel-Snavely, 58, of Concordia, KS, passed from this life on May 14, 2026, at NCK Medical Center. She was born on May 15, 1967, to Frederick and Jeanette (Shaffold) Dehnel in Van Nuys, CA.
She was joined in marriage to Michael Snavely on September 8, 1998, in Concordia, KS. They enjoyed many years of raising their children and living life together.
Terri was an avid crafter, genealogist, and she could always be found creating things for those she loved.
She was preceded in death by her parents Frederick and Jeanette Dehnel; in-laws Wilbur Snavely and Betty James; brothers-in-law Klint Bartle and Luis Lemos; uncles, grandparents and multiple angel grandchildren.
Over the years, Terri held many titles. Perhaps her most treasured titles were wife, mom and NaNa.
Terri will be dearly missed by her husband Michael Snavely of the home; children Angie Pinkal, Travis (Alysha) Wilson, Matthew Ovard (Angela Russell), Michelle Dehnel-Snavely (Dallas Dinges), LJ Dehnel-Snavely (Wren Esplund) and several “adopted” children; her grandchildren Trevor, Austin, Sofia, Gabby, Madilynn and Case; sisters Pamela Dehnel (Shawn McGee) and Jamie Billings; sister-in-law Sue Lemos, Aunt Sandy Gardner (Randy); as well as several nieces, nephews and friends.
Per Terri's wishes, no formal funeral services will be held.
