Sorry to hear of your dads passing. He was an unforgettable man, always with a wonderful smile! Our dad passed last July. All the "great old timers" are traveling on without us now. All I can say is there must be one heck of a party going on up there in Heaven, with lots of jokes and stories being told. Wishing your family much comfort and peace. Jen Robb Knuckles

I was left without words when I heard of Mr. Shepherd's (he will forever be Mr. Shepherd to me) passing today.  He, along with the whole Shepherd family, will forever occupy a special place in my heart.  Mr. Shepherd was always a man of great warmth and kindness.  I recall with great joy feeling as if I was a member of a great family, never just a guest in a home.  God Bless - Greg Hoyt
