Mr. Shepherd, though I'm sad to hear that you have passed I am left with so many wonderful memories. All the times you told me I was eating up all your food, all the jokes you told us to make us laugh, how you shared your home with me and never made me feel like an outsider. I will truly miss you and cherish these moments for life! Rest in peace. ~ 'Cole
