Mrs. Denise Kegley is an eight-year veteran second grade teacher. She enjoys the challenges and celebrations of this age group. The children are enthusiastic for Jesus, eager to learn and enjoy the occasional joke. Mrs. Kegley has previously taught first grade and the four and three-year-old programs at Our Redeemer Lutheran. During her years at Our Redeemer, Mrs. Kegley earned her colloquy from Concordia University Wisconsin (2003) and her Master's Degree in early childhood education from CUW (1999). Before joining the Our Redeemer staff, she taught at Oklahoma Avenue Lutheran in Milwaukee and Good Shepherd Lutheran in East Troy, WI. Mrs. Kegley's home congregation is Our Redeemer Lutheran in Delavan, Wisconsin. Mrs. Kegley graduated from UW-Whitewater with a Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education way back in 1990. Mrs. Kegley was Early Childhood Lutheran Teacher of the Year 2011 through LCMS South Wisconsin District.
Mrs. Kegley's husband is Dustin and he is a City of Milwaukee employee. They were married in 1993 at Our Redeemer Lutheran in Delavan. They enjoy their family, bowling, Brewer games, movies and gardening. They have a spoiled cat named Oreo who runs the house!
Mrs. Kegley plays the bagpipes in two local bands: Celtic Nations Pipes and Drums and the Greater Milwaukee Fire and Police Pipes and Drums. She served on the executive board for the Fire and Police band for five years as treasurer and then as secretary. She competed with the Fire and Police band in 2010 and 2011. The Fire and Police band participated in the National Law Enforcement Memorial in Washington, D.C. in 2008.

While playing with Celtic Nations Pipes and Drums, Mrs. Kegley helped the band earn awards in competitions in 2008 and 2009. When she isn't grading papers, you will find her playing her bagpipes!
Mrs. Kegley also plays viola. She spent many years in the Beloit-Janesville Symphony Orchestra and the Menomonee Falls Symphony. Now she plays with the Our Redeemer Music Ministry and any additional services when requested. It is a joy to serve the Lord through music! God gives the heart a voice to sound its joy and calls it music. God gives all gifts and talents, He has trusted in Mrs. Kegley to share that joy with the people around her.
