Not sure what to say?

Dear Jane, I fondly remember Ralph at City Health Club. That was a great time for all of us. I'm glad you both were in my life giving me great memories. I hope life has been favorable for you! Fun Marcia

Wondering how Jane is doing and where she lives? I think of how wonderful she and Ralph were together as a couple often. Prayers for all of Ralph's family. Marcia Larsen

Ralph was a good friend while at Exeter and I saw him a few times after graduation. I moved to Midland, TX in 1958 and saw him and his wife at reunions. I still remember his winning hit in our win over Andover in 1948. He was a wonderful guy and I wish I had seen more of him. My best wishes to all of his family.

Ralph was such a kind and gentle man. Loved having him in my class at City Health Club for many years. Jane- I miss you and hope you are well. I'd love to hear from you where ever you are. Love, Marcia

Dear Jane,
I was recently shocked to learn of Ralph's passing this past August. I wish I had your current phone or address. I loved having both of you at City Health Club silver sneakers exercise classes for so many years. Ralph gave me good advice and fond memories. I'll remember him with gratitude that I could call him a friend. He was a wonderful man!
Fondly,
Marcia Larsen

Dear Jane and family,
Ralph was such a nice man! I loved how easy he was with his smile and how much interest he took in other people and how good he was with names and details. I respected so much how active and involved he was - school board, West Hill Civic Assoc., and of course his beloved alma mater to name a few. He really "put his money where his mouth was." Since you moved from West Hill we haven't stayed in contact but please know I think of you and Ralph often, especially...

Jane and Family,
Ed and I extend our sincere condolences to you. Ralph would always light up the room with his laughter and wit. It was a pleasure to have served with him in the Ithaca Sail and Power Squadron. May you all know he will always watch over you and ask for his Scotch on the rocks to toast all of your accomplishments.

I knew Ralph at Exeter and we were good friends when we were 15 to 18 years old. I saw him at Exeter reunions and it was then that I met Jane. Jane, I wish we had seen more of each other and I am saddened to learn of Ralph's death. I always loved getting your Christmas cards. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love, Bill

Dear Jane and Family,

Very sad to hear this news. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Ralph was one of a kind. Extremely skilled and experienced in his work. Devoted to his family and friends. A steady hand guiding so many lives that he touched.

That smile and his kind and gentle laugh could warm a cold room in a dark Upstate NY winter.

He will be missed deeply by all who knew him.

Sincerely,

Don Hamill
