Mrs. Shepherd was such a joy to know. I knew her when Mary grew up in Silsbee and in later years when she and Mr Shepherd would come into the Credit Union where I work. Mrs. Shepherd's warm smile and little laugh will always be in my mind and heart. May God comfort her family now and in the hard days ahead.

Mrs. Shepherd will be missed so much. She wasn't just a friend but part of our family. My kids love her like a grandma. I am so sad to hear of her passing, but I know she is smiling knowing she is with Shep and her beautiful little red head baby girl. I saw her a few months ago and she was so full of it just like always. I love that lady so much. Our deepest condolences go out to the family because I KNOW how much she will be missed!

May the Lord Accept Her is His Arms with a strong embrace. Mrs. Shepherd was a wonderful woman who touched so many lives with her love for all things living. Her beautiful smile and kindness will always endure in my heart for she was so good to me as I grew up. God Bless Her and Her Loved Ones.

I'm sorry to read about Mrs. Shepherd and for it being so many years since I've seen her. My prayers are for comfort to her family and friends and for joy in celebrating her many years of service on this earth.
