I really don't know where to begin. I have known Ralph all of my life and grew up with Catherine and Becca right across the street. We had the best childhood in the "old" neighborhood. He always said me Catherine and Bec were the "Charlie's Angels" so of course he called me Kelly Garrett (all of my life)
He was such an amazing man. He will truly be missed.
Many prayers for his daughters... Crystal, Catherine and Becca as they navigate through their grieving process.
Ralph, hug...

Ralph became part of our family after 52 years. He was a special person who was like a big brother to me. We enjoyed our time at Keeter Ford as well as our golfing events and stories. He was a huge part of Keeter Ford's success in handling their corpotate accounts for many years. Never met anyone more loyal to his employer. He always had a joke to tell, a smile on his face; he was loved and respected by all.

Ralph and my dad, Norris Ledford, were good friends. My dad & I bought many cars and trucks from Ralph. Even after many years had passed Ralph would remember me and always speak when he saw us. He will be missed!
May GOD continue his great mercy upon the family and grant you peace and comfort.
