Ralph Moreno Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 8, 2016.
Ralph Vincent Moreno, 53, passed away on Friday, March 4, 2016, in Glendale, Arizona. Ralph was born October 16, 1962, in Phoenix, Arizona and was a lifelong resident.

He is survived by his wife Carrie, his three sons, Ralph Jr, Robert, and Michael; his mother Stella, two brothers, Rick and Ruben, sister Rachel, and extended family. He is preceded in death by his father Richard, brother Raul, mother-in-law Nora, and nephew Rudy.

Ralph was known by many titles in his community such as father, coach, husband, coworker, son, and volunteer. One title everyone can unanimously agree that best described him was unconditional friend. Ralph truly exemplified selfless with a give first mentality. He was always giving in any way he could whether that be his time, his advice, or his personality. A jokester in nature, those around him knew him to always be on alert for constant teasing and jokes, which were a reflection of his ability to make any individual feel special.

A love for coaching, horse racing and spending time with his family, Ralph lived each day as if it were a gift. Whether your interaction was for a minute, a season or a lifetime, Ralph had a way of making an impact on any person he came in contact with. He will truly be missed but his impact on this world will always be remembered.

I am so sad to have come upon this news. I worked with Ralph's son and namesake Ralph and can say the apple certainly does not fall far. The words about Mr Moreno explain his son' s zest for life and getting to know people. He must have been a great man.
I believe this family has truly had a huge loss here and wish them comfort in the memories.
