Willie Herman Sheppard

Willie was an Army veteran who met the love of his life, Linda, while in the service. He spent his working years in various maintenance departments in Alabama and Colorado. During his free time, he enjoyed playing games of skill bolstered by always having luck on his side. He was an avid golfer, great billiards player, and he played more than the occasional game of dominoes. Above all else, Willie was loyal and loved his family. He was the kind of man who would do anything for them.

Willie is survived by his wife, Linda Sheppard; his daughter, Stacey Adams (Tim Adams); his son, John Sheppard (Carrie Wotruba); and his grandchildren, Brody and Lydia Sheppard, and Harper Adams. He is also survived by his brothers Roy Sheppard (Betty) and Tony Sheppard (Cyndi); his sister-in-law, Gina Sheppard (Melton); and his brother-in-law, Danny Capps (Yvonne), along with extended family members who loved him dearly.

He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Ethel Sheppard; his brother, Melton Sheppard; his sister, Yvonne Capps; and his sister-in-law Betty Sheppard.
