Randy Shepherd

Randy Robert Shepherd passed away peacefully in London on Sunday, December 21, 2025, at the age of 64.

Randy will be deeply missed by his son, John Shepherd (Roshelle); his granddaughter, Callie Shepherd; his mother, Marion Shepherd (predeceased by Bob in 2021); his sisters, Patty Heyninck (Matt) and Penny Tucker; as well as his many nieces and nephews.

Anyone who knew Randy knew that he lived life to the fullest. He was a risk-taker with a sharp sense of humour and a gift for words. He loved nothing more than teasing and taunting those around him, often spending hours reminiscing and sharing life stories with anyone willing to listen.

Randy loved his family and friends unconditionally and would do absolutely anything to protect them. He had an enormous heart and never hesitated to help—whether that meant cooking a meal for someone who was struggling or giving his last dollar to someone in need.

Even in death, Randy continued to think of others. In his final act, he chose to become an organ donor, demonstrating remarkable strength, kindness, and compassion. Through this selfless decision, Randy gave the greatest Christmas gift imaginable—the chance for others to live, love, and continue their own journeys. His family is incredibly proud of him.

Randy’s family will remember him privately. Those wishing to honour his memory are invited to consider a donation to a soup kitchen or local homeless shelter.
