Dear Rose and Family,
I came home tonight and just heard about Ralph. I want to tell you all how many fond memories I have from days gone by - hanging out at your house in Merrick -many times until the wee hours with my parents and family, even taking that long road trip upstate that one time - all of us squished in the station wagon...Lots of laughs each time and many good times that all help make us who we are today. Ralph was a great guy, never anything but kind and generous to me and my family. I know he was a very good friend to my parents, especially my father. Know that you all are in our prayers, and that we join together with all those who believe that someday, we will all be together in the full presence of God; and there will be no more tears; only joy. God's special blessings to you all at this very difficult time.

For my cousin Rosemary, and your children - I'm so sorry to hear about Ralph. If my Dad, your Uncle Mike, was still here, he would be mourning as well. But I know that he is in heaven giving him a big hug and most likely a cold mug to quench his thirst. I hope to see you this week. All my love, thoughts, and prayers go out to you. Love, Michele (Fitzgibbon) Miroff
