I worked with Bob ( RIP) at the Gulf Oil refinery in santa fe springs. He was a stand up guy and the world was a better place with him in it.. had I known that he was in Tuscon I would have come to visit with him, as I live in phoenix. God bless you RIP and God bless your loving family who I know misses you very much.
To my wonderful, so smart, trumpet playing lst cousin Bob Ripperdan who returned home to Our Savior Feb 23, 2021 - Bob, while you are in Heaven, say HI to my precious mom Thelma King Ripperdan, and Gary/my younger son Kyle Wilkins, who returned to God 25 yrs ago after lethal heart virus took his life @ age 17.
So thrilled that my Ripperdan Mom and sister Sharleen & Hawaiian husband Peter Sonoda, & my Ripperdan nephew & wife Adam (Sarah) who live in Queen City, AZ got to meet you lst in 1989 (Juanita Ripperdan was with Bob & Elaine & Wanda) and later in Frankfort, KY (our home & KY's state capitol) got to in-person meet them.
May the Lord welcome you to life everlasting, Mr. Ripperdan, as He ushers you to His loving embrace. My Mom and Dad will be part of your welcoming committee!
