My memory will be of the smell of bacon in the morning and the wonderful spaghetti sauce I could never get the recipe for. My thoughts are with you all.

I am very sad and very sorry for your loss. I will remember Poppy as a kind man with big heart.
Going through the war, saving lives of complete strangers, and raising a family of 5 is no small feat.

Your Dad was a cousin of mine who I haven't seen in years. May he rest in peace.

One memory of Uncle Ralph would be how he would loved the fact that my brother favored the Marines over Navy because my grandfather was in the Navy. May you find comfort in his memories which will never go away.
