With great sadness we share the passing of our dad Bob, at the age of 88 years. He is survived by the love of his life for 64 years, Marilyn and four children Danny, Joanne (Stacy), David (Donna), and Duncan (Linda). Bob was very proud of his grandchildren Katrina, Clint, Katie, Sean, Darren, Stephanie, and Craig and was always eager to share their news with others. Bob was predeceased by his parents Carla and William Ripley, his brother Jim Ripley, and eldest daughter Jerri in 2008.
Bob worked in the sheet metal industry for years, retiring as the owner of Phoenix Metals. His handshake and his word were as good as any contract.
Special thanks are extended to Dr. Champagne and Carla with the Cardiac Function Clinic for their compassion and care.
Dad, thank you for teaching us the importance of family, for not being afraid of hard work, and for always being proud of us.
At Bob’s request, there will be no service.
