Every memory I have of Grandpa he always had a smile on his face, always laughing or singing. When we were younger I always remember Grandpa being so eager to take us kids to the park or for a ride in, or in the back of his El camino - he had rigged up some seat belts for us back there. :) I just remember thinking that was the greatest.
Whenever Grandpa came to visit us, after our morning family devotions he would always start singing, I looked forward to those moments and cherish ever one of them.
I am so proud to say that James Shepherd was my Grandpa. It is so evident to me, and to so many, that he loved the Lord, and what an example of that he displayed in his life. Thank you Grandpa.

With all my love,
Laura
