You might not have heard the sad news that David Van Winkle,

38, Rip's son, was killed Monday night (May22) when the car

he was working on rolled off the ramp stands and crushed

him. The Ithaca Journal said that the parking brake had not

been set. This happened in the implement shed at Rip's place

on Slaterville Road. David was changing the alternator on

the car of a family friend. When he didn't come back up to

the house, Rip went down to the shed and found him. David

was pronounced DOA at the hospital.

Rip's address is

David Van Winkle

2149 SLATERVILLE RD.

ITHACA, NY 14850

I hope you can pass this information to Chago, Raul Alvarez, and others who worked with Rip.
