Mrs. Schepp was my kindergarten teacher for the '92-'93 school year and my family and I lived around the corner. We still tell stories about my time in her class. Usually about my getting in trouble for talking during nap time! She left a great legacy!

I'm so sorry to hear of Susan's passing. I taught second grade at Shreve Island Elementary in the early 90's. Susan was always so kind and sweet. And although I haven't seen her in years, I have fond memories of her. I'm praying for peace and comfort for the family that is left behind. Lord Bless you.
