Ercell Wanda Shepperd Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on September 19, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Ercell Wanda Shepperd (Roanoke, Virginia). You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

As Ercell departs from this earthly realm, her essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death. Though Ercell may no longer walk beside us, her spirit lives on in the memories and the legacy Ercell leaves behind.

She was predeceased by: her husband William A. Shepperd; and her son Stanley D. Kelley (Max). She is survived by: her children, Donna Quesinberry (Chester), Steven Kelley, David Kelley (Jody) and Karen Webb (Craig). She is also survived by grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
