My sympathies on your loss. I had the pleasure of Mr. Ripley as my teacher in 7th grade. He was an incredible teacher and a wonderful, compassionate person. He will be missed.

Dad, I miss you already! I love you so much! I am so very grateful you are now at peace! I will forever treasure all of our time spent together, the many vacations taken, going to Grace and Ben's sporting events and of course all of your stories and jokes. You were a wonderful husband, father and grandfather, brother and uncle. You truly taught me many life lessons during my 52 years with you. The many great memories will help me get through this. Until we meet again, dad, love you forever, Cynthia.
