Larry and Ramona, I was saddened to read of Raphael's death. I still remember his shy smile as he tried to pronounce the challenging words in French class. And I remember how much he loved football. What a loss. Larry, if Dan were still living I know he would want to send his sympathy, too.

Raphael was just three years old when Ramona became a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. Therefore, he was the child in our meetings that we all adopted. May he rest in peace and love.
