I met Ian when he was still 11 years old. I “added” Ian “Elementary” Watson Phipps to his name. Eventually I shortened his handle to just “BiG-E”. Although I still referred to his little motor boat as The “S.S. Elementary “. After watching Ian grow & me knowing him over these past 35 plus years. I can safely say with most certainty that Ian is at peace again. Back with his Nana, Parent’s & Uncles.> So Ian, say hello to them-from All of us & Until we meet again Ian, you can ride your boat 🌈🚣⛅️ on Heaven Lake. Your: Brother in-law, 👋 D-boy.
