Uncle Ralph was always my favorite when I was growing up in Idaho, and continued so throughout all his years of association with my parents and my family in Arizona. He was loved and revered by all who knew him. I've never known a man of more even temperment no matter what the circumstance. His example and smile will never be forgotten. I'm sure he is at peace now with Aunt Elna and all the family gone on before. Sincerely, Jay Moyes, Susan and 9 children
