In loving memory of a wonderful husband, father,
grandfather and friend

JOHN LEMUEL SHEPPARD

who passed away Dec. 1, 2008.

In tears we saw you sinking,
We watched you fade away,
Our hearts were almost broken,
You fought so hard to stay,
But when we saw you sleeping,
So peacefully free from pain,
We could not wish you back,
To suffer that again.

Forever loved and remembered by wife Gladys, daughter Eunice, sons Robert and George and families.
