He was born on January 20, 1974, in Dubuque, the son of Richard and Jane (Lowrance) Oberbroeckling. He grew up in Dubuque and attended Hoover Elementary School, Washington Jr High, Hempstead and Central High School.

Korbi’s childhood was full of lasting memories that were full of laughter, jokes, pranks and love. Korbi had an amazing ability to make people laugh and his smile was infectious. He loved to spend time with his family playing card games, fishing and drawing.

Korbi, worked construction his entire life and was most proud of the years he worked for his brother Kevin doing concrete, landscaping and plowing snow.

In 2000, Korbi welcomed his daughter Alexis Marie Oberbroeckling into his life and family. Alexis was such a daddy’s girl! When she was in a room with Korbi she would NOT share his attention with anyone. Korbi and Alexis loved to be goofy, sing & listen to music together.

In 2001, Korbi welcomed his son Kaine William Oberbroeckling into this world. His forever fishing buddy and best friend. Kaine, carries so many of Korbi’s traits including his smile. Korbi was so proud of Kaine and all his accomplishment and loved the man he has become.

In 2002, Korbi was married to Amy McGovern at Sacred Heart Church, in Dubuque. Although they later divorced, Korbi and Amy continued to co-parent their kids and grandchildren for the last 23 years.
