JUNE 24, 2016 THE FRIDAY FLYER A-7 Learn-to-Ride Day to honor Ruppert memory
The Wakeboard Club will host a Learn-to-Ride Day this Sunday, June 26, starting at 9 a.m. in the North Ski Area. The cost is $15, with boats and equip- ment provided. The day is devoted to instruction in wakeboarding, wakeskat- ing and safe boating, and also will honor the memory of John Ruppert, a young Canyon Lake father who died June 9 in a tragic accident while house-boating with his family.
As an avid wakeboarder and mem- ber of the Canyon Lake Wakeboard Club board of directors, John helped run Learn to Ride Days, says Club President Dave Clarke.
A memorial service was held Monday at Canyon Lake Community Church, where John’s good friend, Jared Cut- ler, was one of the speakers. In a trib- ute written for wakeworld.com, Jared wrote, “John was a dedicated father, husband, firefighter, believer, friend and one genuinely passionate wakeboarder who always made it a goal annually to wakeboard every month of the year, re- gardless of how cold it was.
“John’s drive and determination is what motivated him to pursue a career in firefighting, and his steadfastness in God is what helped to keep this family man grounded in faith. A father to two amazing children, Jackson (7) and Kei- ra (5), and husband to a beautiful wife, Kristen, John was living the clichéd ‘All-American dream’ . . .”
Dave says all proceeds from Sunday’s Learn to Ride event will be given to John’s family. In addition, “In memory of” stickers will be available for a dona- tion to show support for this friend and neighbor.
Condolence cards may be sent to the Ruppert family at 23596 Cutter Dr. Those who knew John are invited to
