I love you all so much! Ralph was my first Beilfuss to meet in the Fall of '90. Since then, you have become my family. I truly loved Ralph and am grieving the loss of him. These last years have been difficult for you, MArcia and James, but you never wavered in your ability to take each day at a time to continue in loyalty and love in many days of trial. What wonderful lessons and love are ours from our "Ralphie-boy" Love you long time, Karen S(zabo)
