Scott Allen Goblirsch was born on November 24, 1960, to Gerald and Sandra (Lothert) Goblirsch in Redwood Falls, MN. He was baptized and confirmed through the Catholic Church. He attended Redwood Falls elementary and middle school and graduated from Redwood High School in 1980. In 1980, Scott married Jan (Neudecker) Raddatz, and together they raised three children before later divorcing. He later married Carolyn McMasters in 1997, and they also later divorced.

Redwood Falls was home to Scott for most of his life before he moved to Austin five years ago. Over the years, he worked for Specialty Engineering, Brown-Wilbert Vault Company, Maasch Metal, Northwest Drywall, and Smyth. He retired in 2025. Scott also gave back to his community through 12 years of service as a member of the Redwood Falls Fire Department, a commitment that reflected his willingness to serve others.

Scott enjoyed the simple pleasures that brought people together and made life fun. He liked watching any Minnesota sports teams, old western movies and television shows, playing pool, shooting darts, and following NASCAR. Those who knew him will remember the enjoyment he found in those pastimes.

He is survived by his children, Shawn (Ana) Goblirsch of Shakopee, Sarah Goblirsch of Redwood Falls and Trevor (Brianna) Goblirsch of Redwood Falls; 7 grandchildren, Devin, Jayce, Kade, Fletcher, Thompson, Hendrix, and Penelope; and 1 great-grandchild. He is also survived by his sister, Kelly (Jason) Steffl of Redwood Falls, as well as his special friend, Jaye Adams of Austin and many uncles, aunts, cousins and nieces.

Scott was preceded in death by his parents, Gerald and Sandra Goblirsch.

Blessed be his memory.
