Ralph Lomele Obituary
LOMELE, Ralph
Born in 1926 and entered into rest in 2008 after a sudden and intense battle with kidney disease. Ralph was preceded in death by his wife Olga and is survived by daughter Linda; son Mark; sister Benedetta; granddaughters Mary and Lisa; grandsons Brian and Michael; great-grandson Jakob; daughter-in-law Lori; son-in-law Thomas; niece Janis and nephew Kenneth. Ralph was a devoted husband, loving father and adoring grandfather and great-grandfather. During his career, he served as an investigator with NIS. In his retirement years, he was an avid traveler, an auxiliary volunteer at Sutter Roseville Medical Center and St. Vincent de Paul. He enjoyed family gatherings, music, his train collection and working in his garden and garage. We all loved him dearly and will miss him deeply. A Memorial Service will be held at SS. Peter and Paul Catholic Church in Rocklin, CA, on Friday, June 20th at 10:30 a.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the National Kidney Foundation.

Mark and Linda- Your father ment so much to me! I am a nurse at Sutter Roseville Medical Center and could not wait to see him each Friday morning. I was the one to take care of him on the Wednesday when he came into the hospital. Fighting tears and trying to be strong I started his IV and had my last conversation with him. I felt that he wanted to go home and be with his beloved Olga. I miss him so much, and his passsing is a true loss. Thank you for allowing your father to make such a deep impact in other's life's. He is truely missed.

I remember the good times Dave and I had with your parents. I will miss talking to him as he always brightened my day. Will remember The Beach House as one of our favorite places. You and your family are in my prayers.

Mark and Linda,
I was so sorry to hear about your dad's passing. I have such fond memories of him when we lived in San Rafael and was lucky enough to see him again in San Diego in 2005. He was a great guy. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
