[[I think we need more information about Dr. Ben Sheppard. He is one of those individuals in Miami-Dade who made extra ordinary contributions to this community, yet seems to have gotten loss in history. I am sure that most of the students at Ben Sheppard Elementary School do not know who he is. I am sure that most of the teacher do not know either. It is a shame, we do not know enought about this great man.]]
