Condolence From: Bert and Linda Goodman
Condolence: Sharen and Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. If I could have only stayed in closer contact with this wonderful man after we graduated high school and left Kinchloe AFB, I would be a much better man myself. He was so funny and a great pleasure to be around. Sharen, you and you family have been truly blessed. You must have so many wonderful memories. Keep em in the air Ralph.

Condolence: I will never EVER forget your sense of humor, Ralph, nor your love for the Lord. And I will never forget your recitation of Thomas the Twin from the Drama. I can still hear you saying the part...
You will be missed by many, Ralph.

Condolence: I first met Ralph during my stint at KVCC in the early 70's. I later followed him up to Michigan Tech. Ralph was an intensely funny and caring person. A fun person to be around. In looking through the condolences posted here, I find it striking that many comments come from mutual aquaintences from 35 years ago. He surely made a strong and positive imprint on those he met. My condolences to Sharon and his daughters.

Condolence: Sharen and family,
We are sorry to hear about Ralph. What a wonderful husband/father/man of God. He will be missed by so many people. Did not realize what a talented man he was during his lifetime. We pray for you during this time and pray that God's grace and peace will be with all of you.

Condolence: Dear Sharen and family, I was saddened to hear that Ralph lost his battle. I had to laugh though when I read about his "pointless son-in-laws". That sounds just like Ralph! Ralph was one of the first people to teach me that you can be a serious Christ follower without having a serious bone in your body. Your whole family has been a great example for our family, especially Erin, and we are especially grateful for that. By now, I'm sure Ralph has the angels rolling around on the streets of gold laughing!

Condolence: Sharen and family, I'm so very sorry to read about your loss. His obiturary is a great testament to the Ralph that I remember at Allen. Most always smiling with a twinkle in his eye, and lots of laughter. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Although there is a void, I'm confident that all the wonderful memories he has left you will give you comfort during this time of grieving. Cyndi
