To the family of Uncle Ralph,
We are so sorry for your loss.
What won't I miss about this man! From his smile, hugs and words of encouragement. He made me laugh when I was having a bad day,(there were a lot of those), and I looked forward to seeing him everyday. I also looked forward to the Christmas tree he would put up EVERY YEAR to put all of us in the holiday mood. He was my Uncle and I share in your loss of this terrific man! He meant the world to me & will forever be in my heart & prayers.
