Ralph was born March 1, 1931, in Freemont, SK. He served 11 honorable years in the U.S. Navy as a maintenance engineer. He then worked as an engineer at Kenai Packers on the fishing boats and was a merchant marine. Ralph enjoyed warm weather and traveling around, visiting friends and family. He lived mostly in Arizona and Florida in his later years. He was charismatic, intelligent and stoic; strict and stern, yet caring and generous; brutally honest and outspoken; respected by all. Sharp as a tack until the end. He was greatly loved and will be very missed.
