Barb and Family,

It is with sorrow we share your loss. With losses of my mom and Cathy's dad we understand the loss of a loved one leaves a void, but we also now know they would want us to move forward and remember them as they lived.

To all the Sheppards,



I am sorry to hear of Mr. Sheppard's passing. I had heard his name read at church for a while each time I was in Glenview, and so I knew he was not well. I have many fond memories of the times we all had together with your Dad on Royal Oak.



With sympathy and condolences,



Dan Peterson and family

Barbara and Family,



Sincere condolences from the entire Peterson clan. Dick was a wonderful gentleman in every way. We had so many joyous years as next door neighbors while our children grew. God Bless you all.
