Ralph E. Cortis

My deepest sympathy and prayers go out to the family. We will never forget the very special time Ralph and Bruce spent with us sharing all the places that my family lived and died. As well as the history of the towns and surrounding areas. He will never be forgotten.

So sorry for your loss. Ralph and Jeanne visited my home in Vermont where one of Jeanne's ancestors lived. Ralph sent a lovely letter and the McIntosh family tree to me. May they rest in peace.

I remember Ralph and his Bruce presenting their book at the Westfield Athenaeum. History is in the family's blood! I always enjoyed seeing Ralph and I always learned something new about our city from Ralph and Bruce. Ralph's legacy will live on in his son's. My condolences.

He always had some interesting tidbits to share about his genealogy research at the family. So sorry to hear he's gone after a very long life.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

I met Ralph through Shriners along with his wife Jeanne who belonged to the Daughters of the Nile. A very nice couple and now they are together. Ralph made everyone around him part of his life. Condolences to the family.

Sending my condolences to you and your family, Bruce. I remember short conversations with your Dad at the Russell Library, a few years back. He was a sweet gentle soul. Praying for comfort today and loving memories of your Dad for you. Shelley Messenger

So sorry for your loss. Mr. Cortis was a very kind person.

My deepest condolences to the Cortis family. I served many meals to Ralph at the Southwick Villages. He was quick witted and such a sweet man. He always made me laugh and he was a joy to wait on. I will miss him very much as well as all of his friends at the Southwick Village. May you be at peace now my friend and with our Lord in his eternal home. Pat Reveruzzi
