I will always remember Mr. Shepherd’s welcoming hello and warm smile to me when I would come over to his home in Greenwich when I was a teenager. I could always see that this was a man that loved the LORD and his family. There was always delicious cakes and goodies that were offered by Linda’s mom when I came over. I always felt at home when I came in. Mrs. Shepherd would give me a big hug and greeting. I never recieved hugs like that from anyone other than a family member, so I was very surprised at first. But then, I thought to myself, “This is just how I want my home to be when I get married.” The Shepherd family are truly blessed. Mr. Shepherd will be greatly missed. My sincere sympathy and prayers go out to all of the family.
