Not sure what to say?

We remember Ralph fondly from our teaching days in Cairo and the most wonderful brunches that he had. We also had the pleasure to go to Ralph's apartment in St. Louis a couple of times and out to dinner. He was such an interesting and fun person! We talked to him before Christmas and were saddened to hear of his passing away. Our utmost sympathy to his family. Ken and Debbie Hill

Rest in peace Uncle Ralph. I know you are in heaven with the rest of the family arranging a dinner party or socializing with new friends! We will certainly miss you. You were always there for me and I will miss our private conversations we used to have. All our love and prayers-your niece Judi, Donnie and Todd

I interviewed Ralph when I was writing Sins of The South. A gracious southern gentleman. You are included in my prayers. Maureen Hughes

Uncle Ralph, thank you for all the years of caring love and fun times! I will miss you dearly all the days of my life. Connie (Myers)

Ralph, you were a great uncle and good friend. Mia and I will miss you very much but will cherish many fun memories.

God Bless you Uncle Ralph. We love and miss you with all our hearts . . . your California niece Carla, hubby Rick, and your "cherubs" Hannah and Bryce.

RIP Ralph - you wil be missed. Thank you for your continuous good humor and many evenings of spirited debate. To his family, he spoke of all of you with such pride - we know you will miss him.
