Sylvia Shepherd

Lynda, Lottie, Glen, I loved your mom and dad. They helped make my life journey a richer one by their friendship and support when they entered my life in 1975 when I was struggling with being happy in Winnett. Our school had a Home Ec department once again under their love and caring. They put their whole heart into our school and community, a wonderful, memorable time. There is a peace now knowing that mom and dad are once again together. Mom loved her family beyond all things as you said but you all were just as loving back which is a great tribute to your family. May you have an awesome celebration of life this next summer. Our condolences to all of you and thank you for being our friends. God Bless you all, Brendan and Joan Murphy

Arlene always saw the best in me. Even though I never knew how to play the piano she believed in my abilities. I want to thank the family for sharing so much love. Dustin Principe

I remember your mother Arlene and an always kind, encouraging, and patient Girl Scout leader to many of us Hedges Elementary School girls. Nice memories. My condolences to your family. Carla Wurst Holman, in Kalispell

As the lovely wife of our beloved Coach Shepherd, Mrs. Shepherd was always such a sweet and nice supporter of our team. When we get together we still have a laugh remembering the time at the State Tournament when she had to chase our fiery coach across the street to stop him from confronting kids throwing snowballs at our bus. The Shepherds were a great addition to Winnett in those years; Mom, Dad and even their grown children. Who can forget "We maybe Class C, but We're Classy!" Blessings for comfort in your loss.
