The Candi Coe Memorial Endowment Fund

Honoring a Legacy of Excellence

Established in 2023

About the Fund
The Candi Coe Memorial Endowment Fund is a testament to the enduring spirit of Epiphany School and a heartfelt tribute to one of its most distinguished former faculty members, Candi Coe. This endowment is established to perpetuate Ms. Coe's profound impact on the Epiphany School community and to continue the tradition of fostering growth, education, and opportunity for all. Through this endowment, we seek to support and empower the academic journeys of faculty and staff members' children, ensuring that they too can experience the transformative education Epiphany School offers.  
 

The Legacy of Candi Coe
In 2022, Candi Coe passed away from acute myeloid leukemia. A teacher at Epiphany School for 35 years, 28 of them teaching kindergarten, Candi Coe was not only an esteemed educator but also a passionate advocate for the principles that Epiphany School stands for. Her dedication to the growth of each student, her tireless commitment to the school's mission, and her unwavering support for her colleagues made her an integral part of the Epiphany School community. As a teacher, mentor, and friend, Candi Coe left an indelible mark on the school, and her legacy continues to inspire us.
