Stephanie Brown and Family: Taylor and I have all of you in our thoughts and prayers.

Rip was the best stepfather anyone could hope for. He loved life, and he loved our family. He was also the strongest man I ever met. Death did not take Rip; he went when he was ready and on his own terms -- at home, with his family.

Russ and I will miss Rip, and Reid and Paige will miss their Pa-Paw. We are grateful that he was a part of our lives.

Our prayers and thoughts are with
you. We are saddened by the loss of our cousin.

I will allways remember Raphael, my cousin, as a kind, sweet loving person. Dean and husband - Thomas Wilson
