Alan Shepperson

June 8, 1947 — November 28, 2015

Alan Keith Shepperson was born on June 8, 1947 in Casper, Wyoming to James William and Virginia Jane Shepperson. Growing up Alan loved working with electronics, drag racing his car and also held a great love for horses and dogs. At age 14 Alan began working for Tubascope as a journeyman electrician. He went on to attend classes at Casper College where he graduated as a master electrician, later continuing his education to become an electrical engineer. Alan met Nancy Kortes on the school bus as they rode back and forth to school each day. After a short courtship they were married on May 19, 1967 in Craig, Colorado. To this union were born two sons, Kevin Joseph and Keith Aaron Shepperson. Throughout their marriage Alan and Nancy lived in many different places within Wyoming, Jeffery City, Glenrock, Cheyenne and finally settling in Casper. Alan worked at many different jobs throughout his life, Getty Oil and Automation Electronics, and Wyoming Machinery Co. to name a few. Something Alan was always proud of was the work he did on "Peacekeepers" at Boeing Aerospace Labs at F.E. Warren Airforce Base in Cheyenne, WY. During 1994 to 2013 Alan spent time in Alaska working. Alan eventually came back to Wyoming and retired from Wyoming Machinery Co. Alan and Nancy divorced in 1993, but remained close and spent much of their final years together. Alan was an avid hunter, choosing to hunt most anything that he could; deer, antelope, elk and coyotes. In 2009, Alan was diagnosed with cancer. He fought this battle courageously for about six years. Alan Shepperson lost this battle and went home to his heavenly father on November 28, 2015 at 12:03 a.m. leaving behind; his son Keith Shepperson, a brother Bill Shepperson, two granddaughters Gabriel and Aubrey Shepperson of Anchorage Alaska, nieces and nephews. Alan is proceeded in death by his parents James and Virginia Shepperson, son: Kevin Joseph, his ex-wife Nancy Kortes-Shepperson and grandson, Alex Joseph Shepperson. In closing, Alan Keith Shepperson lived his life the way he chose to live and he will be greatly missed by those that knew and loved him.
