To the family and friends of Mr. Wiser, I was sad to read about the loss of Mr. Wiser in the Washington Post. He was my next door neighbor in Chevy Chase for 20 years and my mom's for 50 years. His remarkable kindness and generosity made a difference in my life and in Mom's. I offer my sympathy.

To the Wiser Family I extend my condolences to you at the loss of Ralph Wiser Sr. He will be missed by all who knew him. Ralph had a Love for his Lord and Savior, his Family, His Country and Chevy Chase Baptist Church. Ralph is a National Treasure and should be remembered as such.
