Mary & Family:
Thoughts & Prayer to you during this difficult time. Ralph was just not a close family friend but a godfather to me, I still remember getting together on those said Saturday nights or how he would stop over or my Dad would come over by him to have coffee and just talk about the old days. I had just seen Ralph little over a month ago in town, now so glad that I did. So sorry for you loss.
