Paula Jean Shepard

Miss your mom and dad, too. Loved her sweet smile and fun nature. The best memory was my brother, Danny, had the BIGGEST crush on her when he was about 8 or 9!

That sweet, familiar face will live in our memories forever! We love and miss you, Paula Jean!

Hope your big family is all doing well getting along with out Paula and Jimmie. I know time helps, but it never erases the sweet feelings and comforting memories. The memories become more treasured with each passing year.

Loved seeing her sweet face pop up in front of me. I have so many wonderful memories of Paula and Jim which will remain in my heart always.

Awwe...I will miss Paula's sweet, loving, thoughtful personality. She was always so much fun to be around and so easy to talk to. Jimmie picked a jewel when he brought Paula into our family so many years ago. I am thankful that she was always part of our lives. And even though she was the greatest grandma, she sure never-ever looked like a grandma.

Madelyn, I am so sorry to see that your mom passed away. I don't know how to get a hold of you, so I thought I would try this. I had a dream about you and your mother on March 28. You know how I am about dreams! I hope that you and your family are coping with the loss. You sure look like her picture. That is how I knew for sure it was her. I thought it was so nice of her to go to my retirement luncheon. That really meant a lot to me. I didn't see the obituary until Friday evening, or...

Grandma Pauj, you made everyone feel so loved and welcomed in your home. Everytime we came over, you hugged us and made us take a picture. I loved going to your home as a kid because it felt like I was at my own grandma's house. Thank you for being such a kind and loving person.

Grandma. The simple fact that we could call her that is a testament to the love and kindness she always showed me, my wife and our kids. I will always remember the big smile, the kisses on the cheek and the genuine nurturing love she gave us even though we weren't related. We enjoyed having Thanksgiving with the family and she always made sure you had enough food on the plate! :-) Grandma Paula will be missed, but I know she is in heaven and telling (ordering) the family to not be sorry or...

I have such fond memories of your family and especially of Paula. I met Paula when her grandchildren were enrolled in my class. Paula was such a gentle, sweet person and such a devoted grandma. May there be comfort in knowing that someone so special will never be forgotten. My sincere sympathy.
