Ralph was a great brother-in-law.. He showed great love for our sister, Elaine. We enjoyed his quick wit, humor, and stories. He had vast knowledge about history, world events, and life. Always very interesting to have a conversation with! We enjoyed playing dominoes, washers, and other games at family gatherings. And of course, rides in his Gator exploring the country side! Ralph will be missed. We have been blessed to have him part of our family.
