SEJ RF My deepest sympathy to Ralph's family and friends. Growing up on the WestSide, Ralph was a daily visitor to our house delivering the mail. I considered him a good friend all through life. We always talked about how fishin was on the Kinni or things that were going on around town. He fixed a few dents in my clunkers along the way and could do just about anything. My favorite personal memory of Ralph probably wouldn't be on his favorite's list. I was at my folk's house with my dog, KoKo, a Golden Retriever that was all bark and no bite. When Ralph came down the driveway KoKo took off towards him howling like crazy and Ralph made it to the lowest branch on the nearest Elm he could get to. Ralph had been treed and he wasn't a happy camper. After introductions I do believe they became friends and thankfully Ralph had a great sense of humor, so we all had a laugh over it. That's the kinda guy Ralph was and how he will be remembered. I will miss his BS and the smile he had for everyone. Steve J

So sad to hear this. When my family and I moved to town we would see Ralph every morning at Lighthouse Coffee. He always had a magic trick for my kids. He will be missed...
