Doug Reeves, of Ripley Tractor, Ripley Tennessee passed away Monday. Doug is survived by his son Steve who still work on the old stuff and is a good knowledge source for the folks around Memphis.
Doug suffered from diabetes and succumbed to complications.  A memorial service is being held today.
He was know for great customer service, what ever it took, and had a loyal following the time he was in business. 
Now there is one less of us old guys who were AC dealers...
When told "it's not the money,it's the principle", remember, it's always the money..

Allis looks pretty good from here, there are a lot of young guys on here that are keeping A-C alive.  Big smile  Not so much for us old guys. Cry

My condolences to the family and friends.  May he rest in the palms of God's hands.
