Tammy, I had no idea you Dad passed away. I loved him so much and I know this loss for you has to be devastating. Ralph and I shared many conversations together over the years and he was a deeply caring and loving man. He always wanted the best for you Tammy. I am so saddened by the loss of this wonderful man. What a wonderful life he lead. He will always be remembered with fondness and I hope he catches that big fish in the sky.:'(

Ralph was a friend, whom I met while working at Warner Lambert, and a close friend to my sister, Donna Randel, also employed at Warner Lambert. I remember his unending energy and zest for living life to the fullest. He will be remembered forever by my family for all the wonderful things he did. It is time to rest now Ralph, thanks for being an asset to many lives.
