Not sure what to say?

I think about Ralph regularly. Others That windsurf talk about him also. I always enjoyed seeing him out on the water which I know he enjoyed. He never told me or talked about his involvement in so many lives, as that is how he was.

Dr. Rolfe White was my primary professor as a Social Work major at UWGB and he was an excellent teacher. Funny thing: the times we students enjoyed most was when he would get sidetracked during class and start related life experiences in the field. My sympathy to his family and friends for the loss of this wonderful man.

Rolfe was an excellent social work professor and a supporter of the profession. One of the first classes I took as a returning adult student was his Social Work 101 Class which I remember well to this day. His work impacted hundreds of social work students who went on to impact thousands of people in need for generations. My deepest sympathies to the White Family.

Thank you to Rolfe White for talking me into going into social work and for telling me to apply again after I did not get into the school of social work the first time ! Have been a social worker for 25 years and would not be here if Professor white did not believe in me ! He made a difference in my life.

Met Ralph 5 years ago or so, windsurfing. He was a great guy,,, I did not know he was involved in so much as he was not to let on he did all these things.
That is the guy I saw.
