Keith and I grew up together. We skied together in winter and fished together in the summer. We painted houses together with our fathers. We were in the band together. We were good friends. To Alice - I’m sorry for your loss.

Alice, and family,
Keith will be missed by all who knew him. I have such fond memories of him on Larimer Ct. where our friendship all started.
Over the years we were able to keep in touch even though it was Air Force vs Army.....When arriving in DC you were even
gracious enough to let us stay with you for awhile. Your family went from 6 to 12 and it didnt matter. After retirement the meals
that Keith prepared were wonderful. Always said he should have been a chef.
My heart goes out to all of you and I can just see him and Jay having a heated discussion over a game of golf.
Love you all,
Barbara

Alice and family,
My heart sank when I read of Kip’s passing this morning. I am heartbroken and can only imagine the huge loss you are all experiencing. As our neighbors on Mitchell Circle, we all loved your family. Alice, with your quiet grace, and Kip with his.....not so quiet exuberance. Once I became a single mom, I could always depend on Kip’s help when there was a repair needed. I recall him digging up my front yard when we discovered a water leak. He had it fixed in no time. One of my favorite memories was of the time I was struggling to drill into the cement block wall of our garage. I had made sure I had the right drill bit for the job but could not make any progress. Kip strolled into the garage, took one look at the drill, smiled that beautiful smile of his, and informed me I had the drill on reverse! He was a joy to know (and the most bow legged man I ever met)! You will be deeply missed, my friend. Rest In Peace until we meet again.
Sharon (Sine) Donofrio, Bob and Shaina

Dear Mrs. Kiplinger, Lori, Marci, Dan and Lisa, et al.,
I am so sorry for your loss. I met Col. Kip when I was in high school with Lisa. I was a little afraid of him at first because I wasn't used to being around Air Force colonels. But he had that engaging smile, and before I knew it I'd be invited to dinner with the family. It was always meat and potatoes because that was how he rolled. But I liked it. He had the BEST taste in cars. I just wish he had let me drive one once (haha). He was so generous to invite us to a couple of family reunions in Estes Park, CO. We had the most awesome times with all the Kiplingers, who are a warm and welcoming family. They are that way because of how they were raised, so kudos to Col. Kip and Alice. I could always tell that Col. Kip was happiest surrounded by his loving and caring kids and grandkids. I really enjoyed reading his obituary and seeing all the photos from way back. I don't have a particular story to share but I always enjoyed hearing his stories. He did not talk much about his military service and was not one to brag. I know he will be GREATLY MISSED by all and us too.

Mrs. Kiplinger, Dan, Marci, Lori and Lisa,
My condolences on your loss. Mr. Kiplinger was a great man, father and patriot. He did important work on this earth and it was nice to read that he was prepared for his place in heaven. I last saw him at my father’s celebration of life - he brought great comfort to my mom and our family. My memories mostly center around Larimer Court with all of us playing basketball, kick the can and fishing. Col Kiplinger was one of the military dads on the block and we never caused him any trouble (or else!).
Rest In Peace,
Jim Moody
