Annette Anita Shepherd

Annette loved spending time with her children and grandchildren. Her pastime was playing video poker and taking a cruise on the Victory to try her luck on the machines. She was a natural lady-luck. She once hit a jackpot on the Florida lottery and split her winnings with her children. She was a giving person and always put her family first throughout her entire life. You could always count on an encouraging word when she called. An outstanding and very special Mom, Maw Maw and Wife, she will be dearly missed.

She was predeceased by her mother, father, one brother and two sisters, and granddaughter Shannah. Annette is survived by her husband, Dale Shepherd; son, Jerry Shedd; daughters, Debra Leverone and Vicki Earl; grandchildren, Sherry, Ryan, Jordan, Joey, Kristian, Amber and 12 great grandchildren.

Memorial Service will be held at the Life Event Center at Florida Memorial, 5950 S. U.S. Highway #1, Rockledge, FL on Monday October 23, 2017 at 10:00am. Family members will have a private viewing at 9:00am.

In lieu of flowers or in addition to a donation to, St Jude Children’s Research Hospital will be appreciated.

Annette held St Jude close to her heart and always gave for the children. https://www.stjude.org / Address: 262 Danny Thomas Place, Memphis, TN 38105
