Ralph M. Higgins

As one of Ralph's many "Clara's", I am quite sure Ralph was the best Drosselmeyer. His love, kindness and fantastic sense of humor made every rehearsal and show the very best it could be. God Bless a most wonderful Man and comfort his family and friends as they celebrate his life!

Barbara,

I am so sorry to read of Ralph's passing. I loved sharing lobster with him every year and drawing on his contagious energy.

Thinking of you and your family at this time.

Dear Eloise, Steve, and James,
I am deeply saddened to hear about your Dad. I know I share many many people's sentiments of feeling blessed to have known him, and my life enriched for having danced with him. I imagine he made quite an entrance when arriving in heaven....perhaps with his grand cape and eye patch. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Sincerely,
Laura Keys

To the family and friends I send my deepest condolences. You probably do not know me, but I had the pleasure and honor of dancing with Ralph in American Repertory Ballet’s Nutcracker for ten years. He was a wonderful man, with such a generous heart, so much dedication, and enthralled any audience he performed for. He will be greatly missed.

Eloise and Family,So sorry to hear about dad - what a wonderful man he was and will always be remembered as a great person to have known. Love to you and your family.
