My sincere condolences to the entire family! Ralph will be truly missed by all of us at The Medina Supply Company. We shared so many great moments together. Ralph took me under his wing early in my career and taught me not to sweat the small stuff. His uncanny sense of humor during adversity was second to none. We will miss you Ralphy!
