Mom was our great Sheppard always looking after her flock, never letting her children stray. Mom loved Bingo and cards’ spending an evening with her family was so special to Mom. Mom had to hear from her children every day just to know that everyone was safe and sound. Mom devoted all her life to family and her husband, Gerard and was so proud of her accomplished duty of being an excellent Mother. Mom worked as a bookkeeper for G.W. Myatt Construction.
