Andrew Schepp Obituary

Andrew E. (Andy) Schepp 1971 - 2011 Andrew E. (Andy) Schepp, 40, died in a paragliding accident near Swan Falls on Saturday, October 15, 2011. Andrew was born May 8, 1971. He grew up in St. Louis, Missouri, graduating from Horton Watkins High School in 1990. He received a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Western State College in Gunnison, Colorado in 1994 and a Juris Doctorate from University of Idaho College of Law in 2000. At the time of his death he was employed as an attorney at Brady Law Chartered of Boise. Andrew brought joy and love to many, including animals, children and the elderly. His smiling spirit continues to soar, always. Andrew excelled at parenthood, helping to care for his children as infants and reading to them nightly as toddlers. Andrew's sense of humor included much silliness such as memorizing all the lines of comedy films such as "Caddy Shack." He also appreciated nature, spending as much time outdoors as possible. He went the extra mile for his legal clients and enjoyed doing so. A loving husband and father, Andrew is survived by his wife Christine (Keavy) Schepp and their two sons, Ethan, 4, and Cameron, 2; his parents, Edwin (Ted) and Renate Schepp, and Janice and Anson Eickhorst; his sister and brother-in-law, Martha (Schepp) Granirer and Keith Granirer; his nephews Matthew and Michael Granirer; his parents-in-law, Richard and Diane Keavy; his brother-in-law, Jeffrey Keavy; and his aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. A memorial service will take place on Friday, October 28 at 2:00 p.m. at St. Michael's Episcopal Cathedral, 518 N. 8th Street, Boise, followed by a reception and visitation with the family at the Tuttle House Parish Hall at the Cathedral. The family would appreciate positive thoughts and condolences at www.aldenwaggoner.com.

I'm Andy's youngest son Cameron. I didn't know much about him though from the stories my mom, Christine Schepp he sounds like a cool guy. It's been 10 years now and just so everyone knows we're all doing fine. Thank you all by the way

My son and I rent Andy and Christine's previous residence and have for nearly four years. Andy was always available for any legal questions we had and always willing to go the extra mile to help. He was a good and kind man, who loved his family very much. We will miss him. He was taken at the prime of his life, but his last moments were spent doing what he loved. He will always be remembered for his sense of humor and willingness to help others. Our prayers and thoughts are with those he loved the most - his family.

We are so sorry for this tragic accident. Andy will be missed by many in the community and legal field. His sense of humor and fun-loving attitude always would shine through, whether he was taking a deposition or just visiting with you. We'll all miss you, Andy, but, yes, your smiling spirit will always continue to soar. Our sincere condolences go out to his family and to his family at Brady Law.
