Born to Marguerite and John Shepherd at the Presidio in San Francisco, Patricia was a graduate of Bishop O’Dowd High School, U.C. Berkeley (1978), and was a mem-ber of Kappa Alpha Theta. After graduating UCLA Law School in 1981, she was employed by Littler Mendelson until her retirement in 2011. She was a shareholder at the San Francisco office.

Tricia was a long-time resident of Alameda. She enjoyed attending movies and plays, visiting muse-ums, shopping, taking art classes and dining with family and friends. Her family appreciated her enthusi-asm for providing advice in all legal matters. In her brief retirement, she was finally able to indulge her love of reading for pleasure.

Tricia will be missed by her sis-ters Nancy Shepherd (Jerry Shimp), Joan Shepherd Mellows (Oliver), Dr. Laurie Shepherd Page (Lance), and brother Jack Shepherd (Lee);

also by her beloved nieces and nephews Capt. Graham Van Dusen (USMC), Kit Van Dusen (Chris Murphy), Taylor and Hayden Page, Craig and Dana Shepherd, and step-mother Patricia Newkirk.

Tricia was proud she fought can-cer for 20 years, and her family and friends honor her strength and cour-age. The family gives special thanks to her caregivers from Divine Home Care: Bherlyn, Katie and Denise.

A celebration of her life will be held at Palio D’Asti in San Francisco, at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that you honor Patricia with a donation to your favorite charity. Private interment services were held at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery, Hayward.

James (Jim) Constantine Mastorakos passed away in Hayward at the age of 84. He was a loving and caring husband to Andonia Mastorakos and a com-passionate and thoughtful father to Deno and Maria Mastorakos. James was also a compassionate grand-father (Papou) to three grandchil-dren: Eleni, Dimitri and Panayioti Mastorakos. To many others, Jim was an uncle, a cousin, and a friend.

Jim was born in San Diego.Shortly after his birth, he took a trip to Athens, Greece with his moth-er to visit his two aunts. During their visit, his mother unexpect-edly passed away of pneumonia leaving his two aunts to raise him. At the age of 13, Jim joined the Greek Underground in Athens. His job was to report to concentra-tions of enemy troops and deliver equipment. Jim was picked by the German SS troops and served many months in a German occupation camp. He was also picked and held hostage by the Communists during the revolution in Greece.

After Jim finished high school in Greece, he returned to San Diego. Upon his return, Jim attended San Francisco State University. Shortly after, he met his wife Andonia, and they married in 1955 in Stockton.

Throughout Jim and Andonia’s life together he maintained fam-ily businesses, was involved in his children and grandchildren’s lives, and supported Andonia as she pursued a career in teaching. Further, Jim was a member of the Greek Orthodox Cathedral of the

Ascension and a brother at the Orinda Lodge, Number 122 F & A.M. He was also a 32nd degree Mason at the Scottish Rite Bodies of Oakland.

Jim, Jimmy, Dad, Papou, Uncle, Theo, Cousin, and Friend, repre-sent the many names for James Mastorakos. Although he was a dif-ferent person to all of us, together we will remember him forever.

Family and friends are invited to attend a visitation at 6 p.m.,
