Another 37th Birthday

David, Missy, and Kip all celebrate 37th birthdays this year, and today is Kip’s day. Kip lives with his wife, Angie, and two daughters, Emma and Savanah, in their new home in Edwardsville. He is a Madison County Deputy Sheriff whose assignment is School Resource Officer at Triad High School in Troy (IL). Because of the hazardous nature of this job, Kip is always armed with the necessary protective gear while on duty. He fearlessly defends the safety and honor of students and personnel. The one drawback of this position is that he doesn’t have as much time to stop at the local QT for free coffee and donuts as the other deputies. During lunch and breaks, however, snacks in the teachers’ lounge compensate. Kip has always liked sports and a school environment, but he has undergone some “expansion” (see picture) since his graduation from Marion High School in 1991. Walt’s pizza and cheese balls may be partly responsible for this. Where have the years gone? Happy 37th Birthday, Kip! Love from Henri and Ginger.
