History

Ralph was an Army Veteran and a retiree of the US Post Office after 35 years. He was an avid Golfer and Bowler. He always thought that "I`ve finally found it " when it came to perfecting his golf game. He enjoyed going to the casino and especially like to play "Black Jack". He liked to go to his retiree picnics from the post office. He was very interested in maintaining a well groomed lawn and he was often teased about cutting it so much. He enjoyed spending time with his family. He was a guy who loved to tell jokes and was very fun.
