Ray & I were fishing in a small mountain lake down here in Oklahoma. He asked me, "Are we fishing for largemouth bass and are those lily pads?" When I said yes, he said, "Let me look at your tackle box!" He took no time at all choosing one of the biggest, ugliest lures and within five minutes, caught a five-pound bass. That's the way he always was for us. We could call him from 1,200 miles away and ask him what was wrong with the refrigerator and he'd always lead us to the solution. This year, at our annual dove hunting trip, we not only all missed the same bird in your honor, but one of us, either Joe or I, even managed to shoot the truck as well. We're really going to miss you, Dad, keep the pinochle table open for us.

To my family,
You are all in my prayers and I love you all very much. I will see you all soon.

My family,
I had the honor of knowing the man my whole life. There were times when he was a hard man to work with, you know stuborn and hard headed, Just like his boys are today, but in the end he was a great friend and a loving man. He tought me alot about life and how to deal with it with a positive attitude. I will miss the christmas' at the jasper house and i will miss him when i am in the woods, But i will miss my friend the most. To my family, I love you all and am sorry for our loss. Looking forward to seeing all of you at the memorial.

P.S. Love you Grandma

Northrup was a great guy, he worked like a rented mule, I had the privilege of working side by side with the man; I was in my 20s he was close to 70 and I couldnt keep up with him it seems to me like he was going to live forever, I'm very sad to see him go my deep condolences to all his family.

It has been many years but I can still remember the days running hard on Main St in Scottsville with all the boys. Your dad kept everyone in line and we are better today for it as you would all agree. He is in a better place now and joins my dad who has been in God's arms now since '68.

Mom,

Please know the love we all shared for dad and he will walk beside us through our lives.

I am counting the days and hours until we see each other on the 18th. Then we can share warm hug and loving memory.

Dear BJ,

I'm so sorry to hear of Ray's passing. He always had such a zest for life. May God welcome him into his place in Heaven and give him eternal peace.

I've never forgotten the kindness you both extended to me. Hope all is well with you and the rest of the family.

Love,

Andrea
