Rest in peace Tarey

Lord, hear our prayers; in your mercy, bring us to your
place of peace and light the soul of your servant, Tarey Schell, whom you have
summoned from this world. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

I remember Tarey with
respect and affection. When I first arrived as an instructor in the English
Dept. in '71, he was my group leader. Throughout the year and thereafter, he
always impressed me with his wisdom, sense of humor, and gentleness. Years later
I returned to WP for another tour as a 'P' and he hosted me for an interview for
a job while he was working in the Dean's office. Again, he was gracious and
supportive. My life was better for having known him. He was a very caring man.
May he rest in peace.

Tarey Schell
was laid to rest on September 10 in Peachtree City,
GA, having succumbed to a severe stroke earlier in the week. Death was sudden,
painless, and unexpected. Priscilla was strong through her grief and was
buoyed by the presence of her four children, nine grandchildren, in-laws, and
friends. Over the years, Tarey had quietly become a much admired jurist, first
as a juvenile court justice and, more recently, as a drug court judge. Indeed,
his eulogists included two souls who admitted openly that Tarey was responsible
for turning their lives around and an assistant who considered Tarey a second
father. A friend recited the Cadet Prayer at Priscilla’s request and closed by
saying that he felt Tarey was the embodiment of the Prayer and was “probably the
best of us all.” His honor guard was from local law enforcement, further
evidence of the respect he had earned over the years through his honesty and
forthrightness from the bench.

To my brother, Tarey, may
you rest in peace.
Your
loving sister, Cathleen Schell Kirkpatrick
and your brother-in-law, Jerry and
two nieces, Alicia and Allison.
