Paul Henry Shepard passed away in his home at Middle River, MD, of natural causes after recovering from a heart attack in early 2017. He was 65 years old. He was surrounded by friends and family.
Shepard was 40+ years in and around the construction industry where he began in earnest with U.S. Homes in Tucson, AZ, during the mid-70s. Over the years he worked for different companies in varying roles but was a consultant with Jacobs Engineering in Washington, DC, working on various projects for the Architect of the Capitol at the time of his death. He enjoyed working with others in the construction trades generally, but took particular interest in working with roof system installer/technicians who were new to the roofing trade. He had been a member of RCI since 2010.
His favorite pastime was cruising the Chesapeake with his closest friends (Skip, Robin, Rebecca, and Libby) or fly fishing alone on some remote stream or creek, when he managed to find the time.
He is survived by his daughter, Margaret; granddaughters Signe and Nova of New Mexico; siblings Susan (David) Ridgway of Ohio, John (Pam) Shepard of Rhode Island, Rebecca (James) Murphy of Ohio, Jim of Texas, and Laura (David) Maher of California.
Private services were held at his home on Sunday, August 19, 2018.
Robert C. Butler of Roof-Spec Consulting Alberta, recently passed away. He had been a member of RCI since 2013.
