You Truly Must Have A Heart For What You Do!!
My name is Mrs. Victoria L. Sheppard. I am the Owner/President of A Good Shepherd’s Funeral Home in Oakland Park, Florida along-side the founder, my amazing husband, Mr. Dwayne Sheppard. I am a licensed pre- need consultant for our firm. My inspiration for this planner is to help families organize their funeral business. I have seen a lot in this industry, and one major component is some families have no idea of what information is needed to prepare for a funeral; especially when it comes to the death certificate. Some families do not know where their loved one kept their important documents, i.e, insurance policy(ies) etc., or if they have one.
For many years I've wanted to create this planner that could help every family, no matter the State they live in, to be more organized and know where and how to plan a funeral. We understand planning in advance can be a difficult thing to do, but it’s the only way to ensure things are in place for those left behind.
My prayer is that this planning guide will be used as a vital tool all over the world to make funeral planning and pre-planning a lot easier for families during their most difficult time. I believe by creating this journal, it will ease the burdens of each person experiencing this journey that we all must embark upon at some point.
