Ralph M. Strope Jr.

My condolences to the entire Strope family, especially Ralph's brothers. I did get to see Ralph a couple years ago at the annual Langeloth picnic and we had a few laughs together. Even tho' I was the pesky kid on the "other end" of the street, Ralph was always kind to me. He will be sadly missed.

To Ralph's family: I worked with Ralph at the IRS for many years as his Branch Chief and I always admired him as a great employee who always took care of business. I truly enjoyed working with him and shared his enthusiam for cars. Unfortunately I did not get a chance to see him at the last IRS "old timers" lunch that he attended and missed seeing him at the one that was held in May. We will all miss him and while time will help erase some of the pain, if will never erase the fond thoughts we will all have of his warm smile and kind words. May he rest in peace and my thoghts and prayers are will him and you. Frank

I was lucky enough to grow up with Ralph(Daddy) for the past 23 years. He always had a smile and a hug for me. He always embraced me and my family as if we were his own. I miss him dearly, but have years of memories in my mind and his love in my heart. Mom, Mon and Ralphie...I love you all and will be here whenever you need a hug.

We are truly sorry for your loss. Please know that my family and myself will pray for God to lighten your pain and to Always surround you with Great memories and lots of Love.
Sincere Condolences, Virginia Larkey, Christal "Larkey" Cowden and Missi Larkey

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
