It is with heavy hearts that we announce our dear Mum, Eileen Sheppard (née Lynch), died April 16th, 2023. Predeceased by her parents Johnny (Batt) and Johanna Lynch, her brother John and sister Mary Anne, and by her daughter Claire.

Mum lived a full and happy life, dedicated to her family, friends and faith. Her kindness, gentle nature and sense of humour will be missed by all who knew her.

Eileen was the beloved wife of Dave Sheppard and a devoted and loving mother to their children Brendan, Marie, Liam and Bridget. Eileen will be sadly missed by her much loved grandchildren, James, Evie, Ellie, Ayla, Aubrey and Ethan. Dearly and fondly remembered by her sister Bridie, her Aunty Peg, sons in law Jason and Will, daughters in law Carina and Lisa, brothers in law, sisters in law and all her extended family, friends, and neighbours.

A funeral service will be held at the Sacred Heart Church, Carlton, on May 15th at 12:45. This will be followed by a short service at Gedling crematorium at 2pm. A reception will then be held at the Sacred Heart Community Centre, Carlton.

The reception of the body and prayer vigil will take place at the Sacred Heart Church at 5pm the day before the funeral.

In honour of Mum, and in lieu of flowers, we would like to kindly request donations be made to the charity GAIN, which is dedicated to helping people affected by Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS).

We love you mum and will miss you dearly. Rest in peace.

Sending love to Dave, Brendan, Marie, Liam & Bridget. I remember Eileen’s smile, sense of humour and how she always made me feel welcome in the Sheppard house with a cuppa and a biscuit. RIP ❤️
