SEVENTEEN?????

Tim and Mary Anne Rippey

We live in Killen and have been married 30 years. We have two grown children; Rodney will be 30 this year and Tommy is 27

We have four beautiful grandchildren; one girl, Avery, and three boys: Hunter, Brannan and Macale

Right after high school Tim was in the Air Force and we moved to Dover Delaware for three years. We have lived in Florence and Killen the rest of the time

I am currently working at First Southern Bank in operations and Tim has been with Liberty National Life Insurance for 20 years. We have bought and sold 10 houses and moved 17 times. The joke is that the only thing Tim has kept is me and the kids!

I am busy with grandchildren and I volunteer for victim service providers. I am currently president of VOCAL (Victims of Crime and Leniency)

Tim is an avid golfer in warm months and hunts and fishes with his sons. We have traveled a lot with his company. Have been on both coasts and beyond. Loved traveling to the Caribbean islands...the ocean is my favorite. We both love going to Jimmy Buffet concerts. Yup, we are Parrot Heads.

Tim lost hismother to cancer 11 years ago and my older brother Danny was murdered five years ago. Both of these tragic events have altered our lives, but finally we are seeing positive things come out of the dark.

Look forward to seeing everyone!
