He meant so much to so many of us. I’m so incredibly sad to hear of Ralph Monaco’s sudden passing. Ralph was a lawyer’s lawyer- one of the finest trial lawyers in the state and an amazing person. Ralph was Chair of the CBA YLS a few years before me and was always a role model to me of what I wanted to do to follow in his foot steps. There was never a time he didn’t have a smile on his face and he brought such a graciousness and care to everything he did.

As the years went by, he became the second youngest CBA President then and helped out in so many ways including at the Conn Bar Foundation opioid summits in 2018-2019 (pictured). He was just one of the best.

He was beloved by those that knew him and my thoughts are with Dina and the entire Monaco family.

May his memory be for a blessing.
