Ernest and I appreciated Ralph. It was a pleasure to watch him joke with the children as they would come into the church. They enjoyed him also. His contribution to the church these many years are noted in "The Lamb's Book of Life". I'm sure he and Ernest are having a great time celebrating his home-going. Sympathy to all of the family and friends at Calvary FWB also.

I know that this is a great time of sorrow for the family. Just know that Uncle Ralph is no longer sick and is with God. He was a great servant of God and was the kind of man that others could model themselves. I Love all of you.
