As a family here at Saint John Hope Community Church, we were shocked and saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Nick Shepard. In his time working here at the Corps, he was both a friend to the Salvation Army and an advocate and ally of the stressed, the distressed and anyone who knocked on our door and asked, “where’s Nick?” His office was often empty as he walked Waterloo Street with his teacup in hand, talking, smiling and mostly listening. Nick was quick to offer a helping hand and more times than not; this was on top of an already full schedule.

Our sense of loss pales in comparison to that of his family, friends and those who worked with him day in and day out. His was a strong voice for the disadvantaged in Saint John and it would be our hope that his words continue to echo in the hearts of those who are left behind to pick up the mantle. We pray the blessing of the God of all Comfort on all those who are mourning his loss, and a prayer that the work he began will continue – to the betterment of the city.
