Condolence From: Cathy Holland Risley
Condolence: Dear Shepard family,
Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. May you feel God's presence as you go through this difficult time.
I was a graduate of Fairview Class of '57. Although Math was not my strong suit, Mr. Shepard's patience got me through his classes. I went on to teach elementary school for 30 years.
May the Lord bless you and keep you.

Condolence: Norma, I was in the class of 1959 at Fairview and remember Ralph very well. Math was one of my favorites and as a result we got along very well. I went on to earn three engineering degrees and I imagine that Ralph played a role in pointing me in a good direction. I am very sorry for your loss but what a wonderful long life did he live. As a teacher he touched and impacted thousands of young adults, you must be very proud of him. God bless you and Ralph. Warm regards, Wilbur
