    Eino Riipinen was my grandfather. He passed away in a road accident on his way back from visiting his son Max Riipinen, following the birth of his first daughter (my sister) Kelly in 1968. I never got to meet him, being born in 1970.
    My father also played Rugby League for St. George and Brisbane.
