We are so sad to hear Ralph has gone to be with LaVerne. He was a good friend and a good man. The orchid LaVerne gave us continues to bloom its heart out and reminds us of our two friends every morning as we have our coffee on the porch. They left happy memories with us! James give me a call 941-723-2547. Jack
