Dear Mae and Family, What a gift from God Ralph was to ua all! And, what a privilege to know and serve with him since 1984 at First Baptist Church. We always enjoyed being with and working with Ralph in Chinese Sunday School,the Missions Development Council, helping the Benevolence Ministry provide medicines for people in need,and many other projects for our Lord. His quiet faithfulness was a role model for many. We shall always remember his, and your, kindnesses to us personally as well. We will miss him. May Resurrection Hope sustain you in the days ahead. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family.
