I just found out Ralph passed after directing my in-laws to contact his office. I unfortunately joined my wife´s insurance when we married a couple of years back, but I was planning on returning to Ralph once I could. It bothered me to have to leave. I felt heartbroken hearing Ralph passed away. He was more like a friend before ever being a business man. People could learn from how Ralph treated the people who had the pleasure of knowing him. I´m sad I could not attend his services, but I hope he knows he is in my thoughts and prayers, and I hope his family is doing well. Thank you for Everything Ralph. You were the best!

I am very saddened to hear this news, my condolences to Ralph's family. Ralph was a wonderful and SUPER nice person he will be missed greatly. He has been my insurance agent for 50+ years. I can still remember the day I walked over from Hustedt Chevrolet all those years ago. I was a 16 year old kid at the time who had just purchased his first new car and needed insurance for it. Ralph has been my agent ever since. Rest easy my friend.

Ralph was always good to us. He was a good man. Was more of a friend than businessman.

My family is so very sorry for your loss. Ralph took care of me and my family when I bought my 1987 Thunderbird and all the years since. He was a kind and warm and generous man. We considered him family. We will miss his calls and his jokes. May he watch over all of you always. The Grossi Family.
