Some of the older folks on the board might remember Father Thepe from their days at XU. For me he was a mentor in photography, the man who married my wife and I, and a friend. He was a figure skater into his 60's (and maybe even 70's if I recall correctly) and a avid fan of the Lady Muskies basketball team.

May he rest in peace.

Had a photography class with him. Really cool course and definitely gave me a different perspective on what I previously considered to be just pictures.

Sad to hear. Prayers for those who knew and loved him.

I had Fr. Thepe for Physical Chemistry. I still remember the time when he exposed me to radiation with that radioactive clock that he brought to class. He was a decent and fair teacher. He was around for a long time - he taught both my dad and myself (and I graduated 13 years ago). Sorry to hear the news - may he rest in peace.

I also had him for P Chem. This is a sad day. Rest in peace, Fr. Thepe.
