Austin D Schepers, 33, Huntingburg

Austin D Schepers, 33, of Huntingburg, passed away on January 4, 2025.

He was born in Jasper, Indiana, on July 1, 1991, to Dwayne Schepers and Dawn Zeigler.   

Austin had worked for several furniture manufacturers.

He is survived by his parents, Dwayne Schepers of Jasper and Dawn Turner of French Lick; his stepfather, Douglas Shipman of French Lick; three brothers, Kyle Schepers of Jasper, Tyler Shipman of French Lick, and Bryor Shipman of French Lick; his paternal grandmother, Joyce Herdt of French Lick; and maternal grandmother, Doris Tucker of Huntingburg.

Preceding him in death were grandparents, Fredrick and Janet Schepers, and Edward Zeigler Sr.

Austin lit up the room with his smile. His charm and wit were unmatched. He was loved by all who knew him and loved them back unconditionally. He liked skateboarding, roller skating, bowling, the outdoors and anything that would mean more time spent with family and friends. He loved all animals. He was fiercely loyal and generous to a fault. He will be missed by those who love him until the end of time. He was the best son, brother and uncle that anyone could ever hope to have. We are lucky and grateful to have had the time we did with him.  There is an emptiness that can never be overcome now that he’s gone. 

Private services will be held at Becher-Kluesner Funeral Homes in Jasper, with burial in Fairview Cemetery in Jasper.
