Betty was born October 20, 1924, in Sheboygan, the only child of Erwin and Hattie Stanisch Hillmann. Betty attended U.S. Grant Elementary (then K-8) and graduated from North High School, class of 1943 where she was the treasurer.
On June 29, 1946, Betty married Walter "Wally" Schieble of Sheboygan. During their marriage, the couple took bus tours of the United States and traveled to Hawaii and Europe. They especially enjoyed Door County, Sister Bay and golfing in the summer. Betty and Wally also golfed and bowled with friends. They remodeled their home at 1731 N. 2nd St. and enjoyed yard work. Wally passed away on April 20, 1995.
While in high school, Betty worked at the Bank of Sheboygan from 1944-46; she worked at the Kohler Company and the Gus Holman Office from 1947-1948. Between 1948 and 1960, Betty was a stay-at-home mom for the couple's three children. In 1960, Betty began working in the H.C. Prange Co. office. She stayed with the company until 1968 when she took a job with the then Security 1st National (now U.S. Bank) in their trust department. She retired in 1986.
Betty was a life-long member of St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Sheboygan, where she was a Girl Scout leader, helped in the church office, attended Bible classes and was on various committees including the Quilting Committee.
