From the beginning of my childhood until the later years of my life, Uncle Ralph held a special closeness that I will always have. Even though we were Uncle and nephew... a lot of our conversations were as best friends. His wit and off the cuff remarks will never be forgotten. With much sadness we will miss him.

Love and condolences from Dolores Nelson and husband Torvall. Dolores is a former co-worker of Jacqueline. Jacki talked about her parents from time to time and we feel like we know them. She loved her Dad very much and I'm sure the whole family was surprised by his demise. Our prayers are with you all.
