We shared many happy days at our Grandmother Sheppard's with Aunt Lois, Uncle Bruce, Jerry, Becky and Susan and a bunch of other cousins growing up. Such wonderful memories of summer days gone by.

Aunt Lois you are now with Uncle Bruce and Jerry and all the other family members in heaven. What rejoicing it must be!

Rest in peace!

Lois Sheppard was a kind and sincere woman. She was a wonderful grandmother to my daughter, and mother to her family. She grew up in the country, near Newington, and never lost her country heart.
May she rest in peace.
