The management (Eddie & Jackie Nelson) and the support staff of Nelson's Funeral Home regret to announce the passing of Mrs. Annie Elizabeth Gripper, 82, of Ridgeway, South Carolina.  Mrs. Gripper transitioned into eternity Thursday, January 29, 2025.

Annie was a woman of simple joys and profound grace, she spent her days making the world around her more beautiful whether through the vibrant flowers she lovingly planted, or the thoughtful touches she brought to decorating her home.

Annie's greatest pride and joy, however, were her family. She cherished her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, always filling their lives with warmth, laughter, and her endless wisdom.

Funeral services for Ms. Gripper will be held on Friday, February 7, 2025, 1:00 p.m. at Nelson's Funeral Home, 270 N. Dogwood Ave., Ridgeway, SC.   Viewing will be held one hour prior to the service on Friday.
