Although it was several decades ago, I will never forget playing with "Ralphie" on Sunday afternoons when our family came to visit, and when we all went to Hastings for the picnics at St. Bernard's every August for several years. My heart aches for Ralph and Esther, Christine, Denise and Kathy, as well as for his children and grandchildren, although I've never met them. May God grant you a sense of peace and hope even in your grief; and may Ralph's legacy of love be a a quiet source of comfort and strength in all your years to come.

Loved childhood with Ralph! Fun memorys, we would build backyard skating rink for years. Long days of all sports, and he was fast and great at anything he started. He also could climb better than monkey. I will look to the sky and search for the brightest star in memory of him.

Little Ricky.
