Miss you every day Uncle Ralph. Your smile brightened up everything around you. R.I.P. love you

I just remember Uncle Ralph and Jo always up at my best friend Peggy's house when we were kids, had some of the greatest times there. In later years, when I would see him, he'd always ask me about my "cholesterol", always joking with me. Always a smile and a laugh, those memories I will always cherish. My thoughts are with all of you at this time.

Uncle Ralph will truly be missed. I adored him and Uncle Buck so much. They always had a smile on their face and a kind word. Say hello to Mom for me and you all keep each other company.
Lots of love to u and your family.

I can still remember the day we were introduced to Ralph as Grandma's friend. I was 8 years old and could not figure out why he was coming over all the time to visit. I am so glad he did!! We have such great memories of him especially during the summers and holidays. He was always comfortable on the couch with the remote. What a great man who influenced us all and was such a loving individual to my Grandma. One of a kind and truly a gift from God.

You will be missed Ralphie,...

We were so sorry to hear of Ralph's passing and extend our condolences to his family. We would usually see Ralph every year at the Shrum reunion and he always had a big smile for everyone he met. Ralph, you will be missed and the reunion will not be the same without you.

I never really new Ralph but I know his daughter Johanna very well. I am deeply saddened by his passing. I believe Jesus needed him a little sooner than we thought. He will never be forgotten because he will always be remembered.

Uncle Ralph was so special to me. He was my second father and I will miss him terribly. He was always there for me with his big smile and hugs. I have such precious memories of him. He was so loved by all who knew him. I know heaven is even brighter with his smile and laughter.

Ralph was a wonderful person. He will be missed. Love and God Bless.

Uncle Ralph, I will miss you so much. I always looked forward to seeing you when I could on my trips back home. It won't be the same knowing you're not there, but I can rejoice knowing that you are in a better place and that we can all be together again. I love you so very much.
