Des Shepherd (5 Apr 1930 - 9 Sep 2014)

Uncle Des ...the strong man who picked me up as a little girl and swung me around....who took me to the club on family day for a packet of crisps & Vimto.....who joked and told fasinating stories of the old days in an accent I could bearly understand and shared sixpence & thrupence with me.....who teased and adored my beloved aunt Jean....who answered the phone "and whose this cheeky monkey" who has left me with treasured memories I will never forget.....Love Julie

Des, Reunited with your beloved Jean. We will miss your jokes & stories in your broad Devonshire accent! You'll be forever in our hearts & never forgotten. From your loving family in Canada, Ron & Joan Corrall, Julie, Lew & family, Mark, Beth & family, Beverly, Trevor & family
