I met Ralph while he was working at the Building Department. He was a delight to work with, friendly and very helpful unlike other plan reviewers I have dealt with.

Ralph was a dear friend and brother. We knew each other very well. We could laugh as well as discuss anything. I will miss him until we see each other again, picking right up on perhaps a conversation we started years ago.
