Ralph C. Sessa

Mother and I were so saddened to hear about Ralph. We both have fond memories of him and of Betty. He was particularly kind to our family when daddy (Chick Rubino) died and we'll always remember that. Grandma Philbrook always called him "Ralphie" and we still think of him that way. We pray that God grants you comfort and His peace.

My sincere regret at Ralph's passing. A family man and business man both; he'll be missed by many.

WE WERE SO SORRY TO HEAR THAT YOU LOST YOUR DAD.

YOUR MOM AND DAD WERE ARE DEAREST FRIEND FOR SO MANY YEARS. IT IS HEART BREAKING TO KNOW THAT, WHEN I PASS BY THEIR HOME, RALPH WOULD NOT BE THERE. WE ARE SO SAD BY THE LOST OF OUR GOOD FRIEND RALPH. WE ARE REALLY GOING TO MISS HIM BUT WE WILL NEVER FORGIVE OUR GOOD TIMES AND WONDERFUL MEMORIES THAT WE SHARE TOGETHER.

MAY THE LORD RECEIVE IN HIS HOME, HIS SON RALPH, A GOOD MAN AND WONDERFUL HUMAN BEING.

PLEASE, LET US...

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well-lived.

Although we are all no longer kids and reside on opposite coasts, the Sessas are never far from our thoughts. We send our love and prayers, as does our mom.

Where do I begin with memories of such a beautiful friendship? Ours began when we were ages 4 and 5 and you moved here from Illinois in your '34 Dodge. From teaching me to swim--in the rock pit, to learning together how to drive--at the expense of everyone around us, together, we celebrated life to its fullest. Starting the first grade was an event when my mother dressed me so very "appropriately" and you taught me the meaning of dungarees. I guess I will never know where those little...

I, like so many of us, worked at Circle S at some point in my life. I always felt like Ralph and Betty were family and I never lost that connection even when my career eventually took me far away from both the racing industry and South Florida. And when I visited many years later, Ralph graciously extended his hospitality without a question and once again I felt just like old times. Part of the family. You were blessed to have him as a father and my...

I remember two little boys getting out of a big vegetable truck, driven by their darling Mama when it was raining out, at Dania Elementary school. Oh were they cute!!!

I'm so sorry for your loss.I will miss the toughest man I ever met.
