Shirley and Shepard have been our next-door neighbors since we moved to Skokie in 1986. From the beginning when we moved in with our 2 little girls, they were so kind and welcoming to us. We are so sorry to hear of Shepard's passing, we have the utmost regard and respect for him -- truly a brilliant, kind and loving person - he (from our perspectives) lived life to the fullest! The world will miss him - we will!!
