Mr. Winholt was known to me as the the father of my friends but I soon knew that he was also my friend. I will always remember him fondly when I think back to my days as a teen. My sincere sympathy to the Winholt Family.

It didn't take Ralph long to go home to Anita. I am sad and glad.

Sad for all of you and glad for him...together again. Anita And Ralph were a love story that continues in heaven. The greatest gift they gave you was their love for each other...As your mom's laughter was, their love was contagious and is the legacy they leave you....shalom
