I know Ralph through one of my best friends, Rory. We've had many good times with Ralph talking, hanging out, hunting, sharing stories, and making memories. My deepest condolences to Val and his family.

We had so many fun times in the 1970's & '80's, and watching each other's children growing up. I am sure that Cook will be sorely missed. My condolences to his family and friends.
