Delegate diary: Christie ‘gets most of it from his mom’

Name: Richard Shepherd

Hometown: Hebron

Q. What was a highlight of the Republican National Convention for you?

Q. I came here as an alternate, and became a delegate because one of the delegates didn’t show up from my 14th Congressional District. So I was really excited.

Q. Do you have a favorite memory from the week?

A. I am just going to tell my family and friends about the experience, the chance to get so close to these people. I met (New Jersey Gov.) Chris Christie and his dad again last night. You can see where Chris gets a little bit of it. I think Chris gets most of it from his mother, though.
