Tn Tombstone Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 I do remember that, what a train wreck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tequila Shooter Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 I feel terrible that I’m just reading this. I didn’t know Ringer well, but we did talk a few times. But every time I saw him he had a big ole grin and a greeting that you could tell came from his heart. RIP to a fine cowboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John E. Law Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 I've been away from the wire. So sad to hear this. God Speed Ringer, you will be missed. JEL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tn Tombstone Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Here is something not everyone may know about Ringer, he had a wicked sweet-tooth. Ringer could sniff out sweets if they were double wrapped, in a ziplock bag, and sealed in Tupperware. Chocolate was his favorite but he liked most sweets. As I am sitting at Bell Buckle Cafe this week I will be very tempted to order dessert first as Ringer was prone to do. While the rest of us were having a drink or salads Ringer was having a dessert. Sure am going to miss him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MizPete Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 But...do I even need to bring a deep-dish peach pie? There will be cranberry salad (for Little Joe) and pecan pie because Christmas in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackwater 53393 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 You might orta’!! I’m not a fan of peach pie, but I’ll just bet the farm that there’ll be plenty of Ringer’s friends that’ll be happy to have a slice in his memory. NOW!! That pecan pie?? I’d like to request that you reserve a piece of that’n for yours truly!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stump Water Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Ringer allowed he was practicing shotgun in his bedroom - with dummy rounds of course. One of the dummy rounds rolled under the bed and he retrieved it. That retrieved "dummy round" went BOOM. In that Ringer drawl, "I hung a pitcher over the hole." If you know Ringer you probably heard that story because he seemed to love to tell it on himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
