Uncle Rannie was a patient, gentle man, making time to give a helping hand where ever possible. He loved the elements and enjoyed mentoring the younger troops. He was the last of the original founders of the Ridge Camp and while he will be missed he won’t be forgotten, he is now joining his buddies. His legacy will live on through his large family who he was so justly proud. Rest in peace Uncle Rannie.
