WINSOR - Sheldon and Rebekah (Sheppard) feel truly blessed by the arrival of their beautiful daughter, Meredith Jayne. Meredith was born in St. John's on April 1, 2005, weighing 7 lbs. 2 oz. Sheldon and Rebekah cherish the opportunity to share the joy of Meredith with the most loving grandparents in the world, Poppy and Nana Sheppard (Barry and Lynda of St. John's) and Grandpa and Grandma Winsor (Gerald and Sandra of Grand Falls-Windsor). Meredith is also lovingly welcomed by great grandparents Eldon and Marie Sheppard, and Clem Tremblett. A heartfelt thank you is extended to Dr. Kravitz for her wonderful prenatal care and to the amazing case room doctors and nurses, especially Darlene and Lorna, for ensuring the safe arrival of Meredith. A sincere thank you is also extended to the nurses and LPNs on 5NB, especially Florence King. Meredith is without a doubt a precious gift from God!
