Ralph Epifanio Cervantes

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJB

We extend our sincerest condolences to Ralph's children and siblings. We pray God's Peace over the family, The Vera family--Jesse, Martha, Rosalinda, Carmen and Yolanda.

I´m so saddened about the passing of Ralph.
My condolences to Jerry, his daughter and the whole Cervantes Family.
In High School, Ralphie was a rebel, partier etc.
About 15 years ago, I met him at his business in Montgomery, woodworking, in which he did an excellent job.
He introduced me to his daughter and his dog and we reminisced about our old High School days at East Aurora.
Ralph told me that he gave up all his bad habits and was very much religious now.
He was always a character.
May God grant him Eternal life and Everlasting peace.

God Bless Ricky Rieckert

Ralph was a larger than life figure that loved engaging people. He used his gift to bring many to a saving faith in Christ. There is still much that I reminisce of with him and realize he was trying to teach me. Will miss you Ralph. I'll see you someday in white robes.

Kendra, Sarah and Eric and families, I am so sorry for your loss! I will always have a special place in my heart for Ralph. I used to love it when he would stop by unannounced because it reminded me of how I grew up, and I liked that. The biggest thing I will always cherish about Ralph is his care for me on one of the worst days of my life. I had a family emergency on Thanksgiving day. When Ralph found out, he volunteered to leave his family Thanksgiving party and drive me to the hospital, which was over an hour each way, so that I did not have to go alone. I will never forget that, thank you Ralph!

If ever one of our Lord's warriors fought the good fight, it was Ralphie. Until we meet again, primo...
Rest in Him,

Thank you for sharing the love of God with me 35 years ago, for keeping in touch with me and asking Gail, how's your walk with Jesus? Eternaly greatful for your friendship my brother I can't wait to join you in heaven and see what Jesus has prepared for those who love Him

You will be missed, Ralph. Both of us remember that big red pickup or the motorcycle pulling into our driveway in Big Rock when we were first becoming special friends. Many memories since then even though we moved from the area. One day, one fine day indeed, it will be our joy to hug you and join the redeemed where there is no more pain, sorrow or tears. God is soooo wonderfully kind to welcome His children home. Missing you here is knowing that you are whole and well in His presence in heaven forever and ever. Amen Roger & Patty

My condolences go out to the Cervantes family and friends. May he rest in peace

RIP my Friend

Ralph, I'm going to miss you. I'm going to miss our talks about God & the word. Rest easy my friend.

Ralph lived down the street from us as kids, friends with my brothers. He was at our house a lot! He could always bring a smile, and he remained friends with my brothers til the end. He attended our family reunions. It's not surprising he chose for his ashes to be spread where he did missionary work. He talked about it a lot. Ralph, see you again. Our circle here is smaller without you.

My prayer and condolences to the family. I remember as a praying man, with a warm smile.

Going to miss you and our "discussions". I was always amazed at your strength during the worse health times but as you always said it was the strength in Christ which enabled you.

My most sincere condolences to Ralph's family, loved ones and his countless friends. May he rest in peace.
