John Shepstone retires

John Shepstone has decided to devote his life to his golf clubs and grandchildren. Having joined the firm in 1994, John made a huge contribution to the modernisation of the firm and the introduction of electronic systems. His wife’s advice was always welcome and over the time he was with us he became a lynch pin of our organisation. John had already semi-retired by going past time a couple of years ago but has now retired fully from the firm. He retains his post with PG Developments for a few months and will then join the ranks of Old And Proud! An excellent leaving party was held for John at the end of June which was attended by many current and old colleagues, friends and clients. At it we remembered Johns long career in the law and showed our gratitude to him for his help and assistance in the 14 years or so he was with us.  

We wish John well in his retirement and hope that his grandchildren reinvigorate him rather than simply wearing him out!
