When I married Ralph's sister Corrine, I also got a brother. Ralph & Trudy visited us frequently when their Mother was living with us. We always enjoyed that time in El Paso. I have fond and special memories of our vacations in Las Vegas and Floriday. We'll all see you again Ralph!
Your "inherited" brother,
Don
