Bill began living in the Kickapoo Valley area part time on weekends and vacations while he was still employed in Appleton. After his retirement, Bill moved first to Crawford County and subsequently moved to Westby in Vernon County, where he lived until his death.
Bill's family wishes to express their appreciation to his many friends and acquaintances in both Crawford and Vernon counties for making Bill feel at home.
A memorial service for his Crawford and Vernon County friends will be at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 9, at Vosseteig Funeral Home, 708 S. Hwy. 14 in Westby, with Pastor Gary Daines officiating.

Dick enjoyed fishing, hunting, riding his Harley and making his home and yard a showpiece. He took great delight in amusing his many nieces and nephews as well as their children. Whether it was frolicking in the pool or presenting his gala 4th of July display, he went at it with total enthusiasm. Dick also enjoyed spending time with his fishing and hunting sidekick for the past dozen years, his nephew Travis Mannebach.
Dick was preceded in death by his parents, Ernst H. Ruppel and Alberta M. (Doepker) Ruppel, a brother, E. William (Bill) Ruppel, and a sister, Jane Ruppel.
