Ralph, we grew up as brothers, sharing everything 50/50, good and bad. I looked up to you as my big brother and could not have been prouder of your service in the Navy. I'll always remember Saturday's downtown, watching sci-fi movies and just hanging out. I know #142 was waiting for you one more time. You are missed.
