Gloria L. Schwanenberg of San Antonio, TX, wife of The Rev. Dr. George W. Schwanenberg who served as a rostered leader in the Southwestern Texas Synod, passed away at her home Saturday, the 28th of June 2025 after a battle with cancer. We are saddened by the loss of a great, godly woman, mother and grandmother. Gloria was a Prayer Warrior, dedicated to serving others and her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
She was born in 1925 in Elbow Lake, MN. A farmer's daughter, raised during the Great Depression, she cherished Service to Others, Family, and God. Her life was shaped by her youth. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
She was preceded in death by her parents, sister, grandparents and her husband, Dr. Rev. George W. Schwanenberg. She is survived by her children: Kathryn A. Carter; her son LTC Paul L. Schwanenberg USA (Ret) and his wife Rebecca M. Schwanenberg: grandchildren: Mark Beddoe, Lorin Carter, Amanda L. Schwanenberg Lewis and her husband Greg Lewis, Dr. George W. Schwanenberg II (DPT) and his wife Allison Schwanenberg, and Audrey L. Schwanenberg and nine great grandchildren.
A Celebration of Life service and reception will be held July 15, 2025 at ten o'clock a.m. at Alamo Heights Methodist Church, 825 E. Basse Road, San Antonio, TX.
Please do not send flowers. Donations to the Joy Singer Choir at Alamo Heights Methodist Church are preferred.
We remember Gloria's family and friends in our prayers and trust that the promise of the Resurrection is true and sure.
In Christ,
Bishop Sue Briner
