In Memoriam: Fred Rayburn

We’re saddened to share the passing of former Tipmont REMC director Fred T. Rayburn on Wednesday, March 29, 2023.

Fred served on Tipmont’s Board of Directors from 1982 to 2003. A lifelong Shawnee Township farmer, he also enjoyed boating, Purdue sports and following his children and grandchildren’s sports activities.

Memorial contributions can be made in Fred’s honor to the Alzheimer’s Association or the charity of your choice.

Rob Ford

Rob Ford is Tipmont and Wintek's communication director, a role he's held since 2015. Rob has a bachelor's and a master's in Communication from Purdue University. He lives in West Lafayette with his wife and three children and has a life-sized Yoda statue in his office. Away from the office, you’ll find Rob working on his golf swing, jump shot, or hope for a Purdue basketball national title – all futile endeavors.
