One of the coolest persons I’ve met from Bexar County. I would see him from time to time in Uiversal City, after retiring. He will be missed. Lots of love, Holmes
It was truly an honor working with Ralph at the county. He was an inspiration to everyone he was around. He will definitely be missed. May God give peace and healing to the family.
May his loving memories surround you always and bring you comfort. May you find comfort in knowing that Jehovah God promises to be near us during this time of sadness. Psalms 46 : 1 ” God is a refuge and strength. A help that is readily found in times of distress “. May you also find comfort in the promise of a resurrection found in John 5 : 28, 29. With sincere sympathy

I will certainly miss Uncle Ralph, his kind and thoughtful words, his calming demeanor, and his understanding when I was in a time of loss. Thankfully he is at rest now and may peace be with his children. Love you all.
To a good friend who i had the pleasure to meet about 5 years ago , you were an inspiration with the battle you fought against and conqured ! miss ya my friend and god bless.
Ralph, and I befriended each other this year, and I am grateful to have become his friend and share our love of music, art, and bowling. He mentioned golf was one sport we would conquer together and I eagerly awaited placing a putter in his hands. He was truly a man of integrity and will be deeply missed. May God bless you now and always as you enter eternal rest. My condolences to the entire family.
