Heaven gained an angel on Tuesday. She was loved by all that had the privilege to know her. My prayers for her daughters Donna (Butchie) and Melody during this sad time. To know her was to love her!

I only knew Mrs. Shepherd from the Park Circle Presbyterian Church. She was a genuine sweet southern lady. I loved talking with her. She is in heaven with her love, smiling down on her family and friends.

Donna Shepherd was the epitome of a southern lady! As a child I remember her Camellias and magnificent garden! I know her family will miss her dearly. She lived to see her 100th Birthday and was surrounded by the love of family! I am so grateful that her family chose to honor her memory with donations made to Charleston Animal Society. Their kind gesture will leave a legacy of hope for animals in our community. Lorraine, David and Bill and all of her family are in my thoughts. For the animals I am, Kay Hyman

A beautiful lady left this world but has entered into heaven where she no longer is suffering and has been greeted by her Lord and Savior, as well as, her husband,Bill, and best friend for 63 years. She loved her family and her friends. She will be missed (momma's can't be replaced) but we will meet again. My deepest sympathy is being sent to her daughters, Donna Beck (and family), Melody Farrow (Bobby), as well as her brothers, Joe and Preston and their families. Donna loved her church family and they loved her. Take solace in knowing she is looking down and saying I am finally home. May God hold all of you close during this time and may he continue to bless each of you in the days ahead. Love Nancy and Wayne
