Ralph and Gary, My heart is so sad with the news of Uncle Ralphs passing. He was my mothers (Marie) favorite brother. Now all five of them are together again with Nanna and Grandpop. Novena's will be said at St. Francis De Sales in Las Vegas, Nevada. Take compfort in knowing Uncle Ralph is in no pain and with those who love him, waiting in Heaven. It's those left behind who suffer that need Gods mercy and love . God bless you and all those who suffer from his passing.
