We'll all miss his smile, but I know many old friends are there to greet Ralph---Sue has seats for them on the 50 yard line, Tony is ready to host one of his cookouts, and John is happy to pick Ralph up in his big Buick. And they're not even late for school!

Our condolences to Mrs Mazzei and Joe, Mike and Anthony and all their families. Ralph was such a genuine and happy man. A real gentleman, no matter who you were; he respected you. He will be missed but rely on your faith and your memories.
Love, The Franklin Cantys
