James Fremont Ring

James Fremont Ring, age 66, of Ila, GA went to be with our Lord and Savior on Friday, October 3, 2014. He was the son of Thomas Franklin Ring and Charlotte Sarvis Ring. Mr. Ring was preceded in death by his brothers Bob and Tim and sisters Pat and Lydia. He is survived by his children Matt Ring and wife Stephanie, Jason Ring and wife Laurie Beth, two grandchildren Azalee Ring and Braxton Ring, several nieces and nephews, and of course Bubba-his dog.

A casual memorial service (overalls acceptable), will be held on Saturday on October 11, 2014 at 11am inside the Union Baptist Church Family Life Center. After the service the family requests everyone hang around and enjoy a few of Mr. Ring's favorite things: reminiscing with friends, gospel music, and bar-b-que. Friends are asked to bring a side dish. Dessert and other basic items will be provided in his memory.

Mr. Ring was born in Caney Springs, Tennessee and was a lifelong resident of Madison County where he taught school for 32 years. He loved talking to people, farming, fishing, and riding his John Deere tractor.

In lieu of flowers an account has been set up at First Madison Bank and Trust in Danielsville. Ivie Funeral Home, Danielsville is in charge of the arrangements.
