Thomas Ray Pipkin Our sympathies are with member William Sterling Pipkin, Provo, UT, on the death of his brother Thomas Ray Pipkin on 24 Jan 1977. He was killed two days before his 18th birthday in the crash of a private plane he was piloting. He was a grandson of James Aser Pipkin, an older brother to member Horace Earl Pipkin, and a great great great great grandson of Enos Pipkin (1772-1853).
