I am sorry to hear of Ralphs passing. Ralph and I were golf partners for quite a few years in the Industrial golf league playing at Banner Lodge in the late 80's and into the 1990's. We won our share of championships in that league and I think I still have a few trophies around the house. I saw him last down in Englewood a few years ago as my two sisters and brothers in law have places in Englewood so we stopped by to say hello and reminisce about our years playing golf in the league. I will not soon forget Ralphs calmness. I never once saw him lose his temper except for perhaps a few bad golf shots at an inopportune time....I say that a bit jokingly. He was my dads age and I always respected him and I know he respected me as well. I enjoyed those days very much and will always have him and our days together to remember.
