Tennessee dad dies saving 3 daughters from riptide in Florida
Fred Pepperman’s 16-year-old daughter got caught in a riptide while the family was vacationing near Panama City in the Florida panhandle, People reported.
"He did everything a dad is supposed to do," his wife Julie Pepperman told WTSP in Florida.
“Without him, three of mine definitely would be gone. It doesn’t seem real, Julie said. “I just want people to know a lot of dads say they would do it, and he did it, so that’s a dad.”
