Tristan Paul Schupbach

SCHUPBACH – Tristan Schupbach age 11 of Roswell passed away surrounded by his loving family on January 19 , 2017. He was born on January 3, 2006 in Atlanta to Wyatt and Laura Schupbach. Tristan was 11 years old and lived here in Roswell his whole life. He was NOT your average 11 year old! Tristan attended Mountain Park Elementary where he excelled as an A student and was in the TAG (Talented & Gifted) program. He helped others acclimate in social situations through a group called Circle of Friends; Tristan did this outside of this group so it was a perfect fit for him. Tristan was always a leader. He participated in the school play 1st-3rd grade and got a lead role as "Scar" in The Lion King in 4th Grade. It was THE most proud moment of their lives. He was a natural on stage and had been rehearsing to be Captain Hook in Peter Pan this February. Tristan started playing basketball when he was 4 and football when he was 8. He wake-boarded, snow-boarded, drove go karts and snowmobiles and did Life BIG. He was good at anything he tried. He was the fastest athlete whether on the field or the court. Tristan was a big brother to Colton, his best bud. Colton will miss his brother so much. Tristan left an impression on EVERYONE he came in contact with. He was funny, witty, prayerful and considerate. He served as an altar boy at St. Peter Chanel and had an amazing relationship with God. His parents will miss him deeply. It was the honor of their lives to be his parents. Tristan is with Jesus in Heaven. In addition to his parents and younger brother, Tristan is survived by his grandparents, Paul and Deb Schupbach of Wyoming, ILL., Ed and Peg Sullivan, Mary Sullivan all of Mundelein, ILL.; great-grandmother, Veronica Heinz of Princeville, ILL.; aunts and uncles, Tom and Katie Connolly, Ted Sullivan, Schuyler and Mary Ellen Schupbach, Doug and Adrianne Leone and Clint and Natalie Baldwin; 10 cousins along numerous extended family and friends. Funeral services will be held on Tuesday, January 24, 2017 at 10:30am at St. Peter Chanel Catholic Church. The family will receive friends on Monday, January 23, 2017 from 4:00pm until 8:00pm at Northside Chapel Funeral Directors. The family would like everyone to please visit http://www.tristanschupbach.com/ to share memories and photos they may have of Tristan. One of Tristan's favorite summer activities was attending Camp WinShape. Tristan found the mixture of fun, worship, and prayer magical.
