Not sure what to say?

My sympathies to the Ranaghan family.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Sorry for the loss if your dad....may your wonderful memories bring you peace.

My thoughts are with the extended Ranaghan family. He and his wife raised a family to be proud of.

I always will remember Mr. Ranaghan at the door selling tickets for the Cheverus basketball games at McAuley. He always asked me, "Are you in good voice tonight?" (And sometimes I wasn't).

He was fun, and I miss seeing him at events.

my condolences to the entire Ranaghan family. Dick was a wonderful man and an exceptional police officer, he practiced community policing before it became a national program. As a young officer I learned a great deal from him on how to treat people and serve the community. His practices served as a guide for me in my years as Chief of Police. I am proud to have served with him.
