Mr. Shew was a favorite teacher of mine. I still remember and talk about things I learned in his class. He was a kind and knowledgeable and demanding presence in the classroom...I appreciate that. Prayers to all his family and friends.

I was very thankful to have Mr. Shewmaker as teacher. He was an outstanding educator and a wonderful person. He enjoyed teaching and supporting his students. I was fortunate to see him occasionally over the years. He will be missed by many but remembered by many more.

Mr. Shewmaker was a great teacher. I guess in hindsight you could tell how much he enjoyed what he was doing. I am grateful to spend a few years in his classes in middle school. Someone who truly made a difference.
