Harriett Emma Lee Shepherd, wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother passed away at home, Tuesday, July 7, 2020. She was born December 20, 1945, in Wendell, Idaho, to Powell Lee and Cleo Elizabeth Twitchell Lee. She attended school through the ninth grade. She married young, on December 6, 1962, to Marvin Charles Shepherd, becoming a military wife and raising her children.
Harriet loved crafts, such as sewing and crocheting (like no other). She loved listening to music and dancing, and watching westerns on TV. She was quite the fisherwoman, and enjoyed camping and hunting with her family.
She is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Harriet had many trials throughout her life, some tragic, that she overcame. She was a trooper, and a heroine to her family, especially Daniel. She simply was amazing.
