Jayne Ann Repp, 59, from Gibsonburg, went home to be with the Lord on Monday,
June 29, 2015 after a strong and courageous fight against breast cancer. Jayne was
born on August 9, 1955 in Napoleon, OH to the late Herbert and Loretta (Dachenhaus)
Meyer.
She grew up on the farm outside of Hamler, OH, the youngest of 4. She was a
graduate of Patrick Henry High School and went on to receive her bachelor's and
master's degrees from BGSU in 1975 and 1981.
After graduation, Jayne began her teaching career. She taught at Van Wert School in
1977, but started her life's work at The School of Hope. First as a teacher, then as
the principal, and later as the Director of Children's Services. Jayne touched the lives
of many students, parents, and staff with her positive and energetic personality. Those
same qualities are what made her such a fighter during these last 5 years.
She had received the John Philip Sousa Award, and was the Special Education
Teacher of the Year by NWO SERRC. She served on the Early Childhood
Development Council and the Childhood and Family First Council, and was on the
Sandusky County Council for Retarded Persons. She helped develop Ohio's state
alternate assessments. Jayne was on the Tiffin Ranger's Board.
Jayne was a member of the Zion Lutheran Church, Gibsonburg. She helped run
Sunday School, Kingdom Kids, Vacation Bible School, and served on the Church
Council as the President. She kept her church and faith close to her heart every day.
She will be remembered as a loving wife, a proud mother, and a faithful servant to the
Lord. May we hold the sparkle in her eye and her spirit in our hearts as her legacy will
live through all who met her.
On June 4, 1988, Jayne married her soul mate Doug Repp at St. Stephens Church in
Hamler, OH; he survives. Through their love, she leaves 3 strong and independent
sons; Andrew Phillip Repp, Christopher Wesley Repp, and Daniel Jacob Repp. In
addition to her husband and children, that will also mourn her loss are her brother,
David (Phyllis) Meyer; sister, Lynette (Roger) Teitje; and several nieces and nephews;
her special friends, Barbara Smola and Susan Timmons, and a multitude of other
friends. She is preceded in death by her parents and infant sister, Nancy.
