Obituary

Carey Lee Tripler, age 85, passed away peacefully on February 13, 2024 at Riddle Hospital in Media, PA. Carey was born in Philadelphia, PA on December 13, 1938. Carey enjoyed spending time with his family and especially liked time at the Jersey shore back in the 60's & 70's. From riding waves to sailing kites then catching the rides on the Boardwalk. He picked up golf around that same time and never missed an opportunity to hit the links with his brother Rich and friends, and then later on with his children. Carey and his late wife also enjoyed spending time in Maryland on the Chesapeake on their boat, especially with their grandchildren. That love of boating continued with his daughter and son-in-law, crabbing in Chestertown Maryland for the past several years, and then enjoying the fruits of their labor with a big crab fest after. Carey was loved by everyone who knew him. His smile, humorous story telling, and silly antics will be missed by all, especially his family. Carey is the son of the late William Tripler and Thelma Loving Cramer, husband of the late Kathleen Hoffecker Tripler, father of the late Kenneth Tripler, brother to the late Ronald Tripler and the late Douglas Cramer. Survivors: Children: Kathleen M. Coupe (late Brian), Michael A. Tripler (Karen), Robert W. Tripler (Cathy), and Joanne M. Tripler Slawter (Sanford).
