What a wonderful response in memory of Velda DeMoss for the Greene County Relay for Life for the American Cancer Society. The theme this year was “Who’s Your Hero?” Thanks for the many contributions from former and current residents of the Rippey area. There was also a wonderful array of baked goods for the “Roaring Rippey Bake Sale” at the event on April 21st.
