#happyfathersday My Dad is still my world, even though he rests in the arms of Jesus Christ, his Lord and savior. I remember Daddy holding his tongue when I wanted to talk about my love relationships. It was all he could do NOT to reach across the table and shake some sense into me. He was soooo happy when Greg and I got back together and then married. Thank you dad for NOT making me feel foolish, yet loving me in spite of myself. Thank you for teaching your children to lean on the Lord for understanding. Thank you Daddy for making our lives incredibly joyful, intelligent and empathetic. I, we, could not have had a better father. A great big spiritual hug to Howard Shepherd on this Father’s Day and everyday that I still have breath. Always in my heart, Daddio. September 16, 1938 - December 8, 2019 Add a loving, touching, funny memory of dad on his memory page. Or, just leave a photograph, a quote or something to comfort the family during this Father’s Day. I enjoy going back and reading what his friends, co-workers or even stranger have to say that would make the family smile, laugh or cry tears of joy. . . . http://howard-a-shepherd.forevermissed.com . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #familytime #fathersday #father #blackfathers #blackfathersmatter #blackfatherhood #blackfatherhoodmatters #blackfatherhoodrocks #blackfatherhoodrocks #christian #christianfamily #chrsitianfather #cmechurch #cmechurchconference #usairforce #usairforce🇺🇸 (at San Bernardino, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQWq5UwrxHeDnCKjki-qhk3rQeSd1_TbvBK2Es0/?utm_medium=tumblr
