    Notes:

    Dad was a member of Trinity Tabernacle Assembly of God in Baytown where he served as a deacon for 21 years. He faithfully supported the ministries of the church and was very involved. He loved his church and served whenever he could and wherever he was needed. His heart was tender towards the things of God and taught his children that prayer and serving our Lord was the most important thing in life.
    Dad proudly served his country in the Philippines and Japan during World War II. He retired from Solvay in LaPorte after 32 years.
    Dad led our family with dignity, integrity, and with all his love. He was a hard worker and taught this to his children. Dad was an honest and fair man and was proud of each of his children as they excelled individually. Always taking time to listen, he rejoiced with us in the good times and continually kept his family in his prayers. Dad shared a love for our mother that is rarely seen as together they set an example of what true love is. We are blessed to be called, ?his children.?
    Dad was proud of his grandchildren and great-grandchildren and loved to see them visit. He considered them his heritage.
    We would like to say ?thank you? to his Tuesday morning Coffee Club members, R.W. Johnson and Charles Young for their constant fellowship and encouragement.
    He was preceded in death by his parents, Rev. and Mrs. Isaac Ridge, and his youngest brother, Richard Ridge.
