Ryder News Jan 4, 2018



 Ryder News for January 4, 2018

I don’t have much news for this week as it has been a sad time for us. My beloved husband of 41 years passed away on Sat. Dec. 30th at our daughter’s home in Minot. We don’t know the reason for his passing, I guess it is just something that happens when you least expect it. As most of you know, he had been undergoing dialysis for the last 5 years and had other health issues as well.

Kenneth Bradley is survived by his wife, Susan; son, Rick Sprinkle (companion Shawna Gilpin); daughter, Staci (John) McGrath; 2 grandchildren, Johnny McGrath and Levi Sprinkle. The exact funeral plans haven’t been finalized yet.

There will be a Potluck Benefit for Richard Peterson on Sunday, January 14, 2018 at Plaza Senior Citizens Center from 5 p.m. - 7 p.m. (Richard has been diagnosed with prostate cancer and struggles with only one kidney.
