David A. Ripple

Dear Terry and all family,  Our family will remember and cherish the good times we
hade with our beloved Dave Ripple.  Although God has taken him from this earth,
Dave is in a much better place.  We will miss this beloved friend and family member.


                             With all sympathy towards our beloved family member,

                                                       The Ripple 

We never thought we would have to say goodbye to "Macon County Dad" so soon. We know you are comforted by knowing with 100% certainty that Dave is waiting in Heaven for you. There are so many memories, so many laughs and smiles, so many examples of Dave selflessly giving of himself. We are especially thankful for all of the memories we shared with Dave and Terry on our wedding cruise in 2010. We will always remember the zipline in Haiti (and the food and supplies Royal Caribbean brought to aid Haiti), the dreadlocks in Jamaica, the cruise crawl, the STUNNING photos that we cherish that Dave took of the sunrises and sunsets over the ocean, of the fishermen in Haiti, and of our wedding day in Cozumel. We will always look up to your marriage as a beautiful example of what we are trying to achieve. We saw you love each other so fully and respect each other with you actions and your words. We saw you make each other feel special and appreciated consistently and effortlessly. We will miss you Dave and look forward to seeing you again in Heaven.
Love,
Nick and Kim Amsalem

Dear Dave's family,

My thoughts are with you and I know the Lord is with you in this hard time. In the short time I got to know you, the grace and strength of God on your lives was apparent, as was your obvious love for each other. My prayers are with you in the days ahead, and I look forward to seeing Dave and you again in heaven.

Sincerely,
Nathan, RN

To Dave's family,

We are sorry for your loss.
The turn out at Dave's visitation, I feel, is a testimonial of how many lives that Dave and Terry and family had touched as you traveled with God.  Wow!  We send our prayers.  God Bless and keep you all

Terry and family,

We are so sorry to hear of your loss. You will all be in our thoughts and prayers in this time of sorrow.

Terry, Todd and Christopher -

Thank you for sharing Dave with us all of these years.   What treasured memories.  Dick still laughs about one of the special Daytona Parties.  Dave was a man who never said anything bad about anyone.   He loved you and adored his sons.  God granted him time to say goodbye to you before taking him to Heaven.   What a blessing.    We hope you feel comfort and love from God's arms as he surrounds you during this sad time.

We love all of you.

Dick and Lou

Terry, Todd, and Chris

I am very sorry to hear about Dave's passing.  Sending you my special thoughts and prayers.

Terry, 
     It's true, Dave will be missed by MANY, including us.  His smile was always visible and his laugh contagious!  We have good memories that will never be forgotten.  He was a true inspiration.....

Love & prayers,

Terry, Todd, and Chris,

I'm so sorry for your loss.  I will remember Dave for many things.  He sold me my first car, razzed me at high school sporting events(well okay, razzed me whenever he saw me), and was a strong soldier for Christ.  It is the last thing I mentioned that gives me the greatest joy.  Life without Dave will certainly be difficult, but knowing where he is spending eternity hopefully brings you great comfort.  Please know that I will continue to pray for all of you as you go through this difficult time.  Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

Love,

Doug Price and family
