Charles Ridge Floyd

Je me souviens

I remember Ridge vividly from his appearances at my college in Kerrville back in the mid-1990s, and I owned two of his albums and still listen to them today. In fact, he inspired one of my most popular short stories, and I think fondly of him often. I was just tonight sharing a memory of him with a student and was looking up ways to share his music when I discovered this obituary. I am heartbroken to learn that we have lost such a beautiful light in our world.

I´m so very sad to learn of his passing. Not before today did I know, when I tried calling and got a fast busy. My sincerest sympathies to his family and friends. He was an amazing person

Truly enjoyed working with Ridge at Camp Stewart,I was one of the Bus Drivers that drove the camp boys around to dances and to the church in Kerrvilleto sing in the choir under Ridge. Saw him perform at the Arts in Ingram, Tx...have all 3 of his CD'S...Ridge was a beautiful person with a big heart.

Ridge's Waltrip Ram Handler nickname was " O-Ridg-inal." He had an out-sized personality to go with his musical talent. We had a fair number of classes together, mostly history, English, 8th-12th grade, Black Banner newspaper staff. He sang a beautiful solo in the 9th grade Christmas pagaent which the speech class and music departments at Black put on. Ridge was one of the original "preppy" dressers at Waltrip, back when half the school wore concert or surf shirts, the other half wore...

Knew Ridge while a student at Schreiner University . A gifted musician and funny person. He will be missed

You are truly missed. Your beautiful smile and soul touched more people than you know. Rest In Peace.
