This is so SAD for the snowmobile community. Rippen Chick touched everyone of us us.
I always laughed at her Humor, as others have said, “she could dish it out and have fun with joking around with you”
She will be missed “BIG TIME”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess it don’t matter how or why someone so “Special“ to us was taken!!! IT Just is.
I’m sure she will be watching over us, and she will be asking for a sled just like hers at the “Pearly Gates”.
I think we all could give a few bucks at “Haydays” for the family.
God Bless ya, Thanks for all the good memorys, You will be missed.
My Prayers go out to the Family...........
RIDE ON LAURA…………….

I will sorely miss my sister.
Although we never met, I have always felt that she was closer to understanding me than even my own family. ( I guess us pervs kinds thing alike)
So, a Toast!
Here's to our fun lovin sister Laura (aka Ripn Chick) We all will miss you very much and your passing leaves a hole that will be very near impossible to fill.
As you travel in that distant land, that final frontier, remember us to the Grand Architect and use you influence to get us better snow.
I raise my glass as a final salute and say, "you may be gone from us, but you will live within us always and you can never truly be gone as long as we remember."
Tonight I will be having a bottle of single malt as a remembrance and wake for her.
Let us celebrate her as well as mourn her and keep her loved ones, those that she left behind, in our hearts and prayers.

Psalm 23:4
Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
John 3:3
In reply Jesus declared, "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again."
Its not the size of the track, its how you use it
Abortion under any circumstance is murder, can you vote for a murderer?

It looks like she was a beautiful person on the inside as well as on the outside. This is why I am such and anti-DWI advocate. I have seen too many cases where this happens. I will never stop advocating against DWI (even my signature below has one!).
It also strikes me about how many people think our sleds and other things like motorcycles, jet skis etc are so dangerous, but this is how more people get killed.
It is a shame that we don't really get to know more people like her before a tragedy like this happens.
Ride safe and sober! Make every ride a round trip.

Quote originally posted by indygirl
I did have the pleasure of meeting Ripn and her family and to ride with them in the Colorado Mountains. We had plans for another ride this Spring and also a trip back to New York to ride with them.
I was very shocked, speechless, and my heart was tore up inside when her dad sent me the message that she was killed in a car accident. Had no idea it would effect me this way - but she was truly one of a kind. Could always make you laugh and smile. We had a lot of good chats and fun times together. I was looking forward to all the good times we were going to have. Life is to short, people can be gone before your know it.
I have shed many many tears today, but will always remember the good times I have had with her - in person and on these forums.
Rip'n - Love and Miss you!!
You can see some of the pictures I posted on the Slednutz link that MX posted.
That made my screen blurry.

If any of you have been to a funeral or memorial with the bagpipes, you know the feeling when this is played. I take a minute to feel this songs - i don't often get tears in my eyes, but this always does it to me!
The first is one that is often played as people enter - some call it going home.

Here is what this sounds like at an actual service - I wish everyone could see the faces and hear the tears before getting behind the wheel drunk:

Even though i did not have the chance to meet or speak with her, She is still going to be a huge loss. Everyone on this site in my books is considered family, regardless of how much of an ass some people are. You truly are going to be missed.
