Marcus Glen Scheibe "Marc" is 61 years young. Passed away in September 2020 after a hard-fought battle with cancer. Marc was born in October 1958 to Frank and Janice Scheibe of Clarkston, WA. He joined his older brother Ron and a few years later was joined by his sister Sandee. He attended Parkway Elementary until 6th grade when the family moved to the Spokane Valley. In Spokane, Marc attended Adams Elementary, Greenacres Jr High, and Central Valley High School. (Go Bears!) Marc was a friendly, outgoing, and extremely kind boy which he maintained his whole life. Marc loved sports, all sports whether or not he was playing, watching, or coaching. He loved animals, his family, and Jesus. He also loved a good practical joke or prank. It didn't matter if he was giving or receiving, he appreciated all pranks. Marc graduated from Boise State with a bachelor of education degree. He started his lifelong career in education as a teacher and coach in Cambridge Idaho. At Cambridge, he coached the8 man High School football team, also known as Ironman Football.

At CV he implemented the start of AAU league basketball teams in the area. He was very proud of his athletes. Marc loved coaching and made many lifelong friends with the kids, parents, and other coaches. They all became a part of his family.2008-2012 He became the superintendent of Salmon River joint school district in Riggins Idaho. He was known for his welcoming smile and sense of humor. It was hard to have a bad day when Marc was around. He gave his all to his career and it showed in his commitment to all the students. Athletic or not. In 2012 Marc went to Kamiah to be the principal of the district. After that, he returned to Cambridge to be superintendent the place his education career began.2017-2019 Marc got his most challenging job, superintendent of Mountain View school district in Grangeville Idaho, much larger than any district he had worked for before...

I worked with Marc circa 1977-1978 at the Nalley's potato chip factory on Broadway, now long gone. We worked alongside three other young men on the graveyard clean-up crew and our group bonded over a tabletop football game we played during our --- ahem --- extra-long breaks. Marc was friendly, witty, and oh so chill. I don't believe that Marc smoked pot, but he always seemed so relaxed that one could easily assume otherwise. The prankster in him emerged on his final day of work at Nalley's. Rather than clock out or perform any of the expected job-ending duties following the final bell, Marc simply walked off into the sunrise. Our boss was perplexed and supposed that Marc wasn't aware of the proper procedure. But Marc knew what he was doing. Beyond the minor audacity of the prank, I believe that Marc wanted to make an impact, he wanted people to remember him. Judging by the decent and selfless way he led his life, he did make an impact. And he will be remembered.

Teaching with Marc was such a special time for all of us that had to pleasure of knowing him. He had a terrific sense of humor and loved to make the day a little more interesting by pulling a little prank now and then. He was always willing to share class time and his knowledge. My deepest sympathy to his family. Sending thoughts of wonderful memories he has given us. My heart is sad for your loss!

I was very sad to see this. I had the honor of teaching with Marc in Cambridge, and he was my son's 3rd grade teacher. He really liked and looked up to Marc as did all the kids. Such a loss. My sincere condolences to the family. Such a terrible loss .
