One of my favorite memories of Uncle Ralph was canoeing at Chesley Lake in the birch canoe. Along with that came late night games of Rook or Dominos or whichever games the kids were into at the time. I can hear the chuckles and laughs of good times together. He was always interested in our families ongoing life events and a pleasure to talk to at family gatherings. Our deepest condolences.

Dear Ralph's Family - we send to you our condolences from Alberta. Our thoughts and prayers have been with all of you since we heard the news of Ralph's passing. I am thankful that I was able to connect with Ralph & Anne last summer when I was visiting my sister Sue. I remember my 'Good Morning' waves to both of you when you were having your breakfast and I was heading out onto Sue's porch, to enjoy my morning coffee. Also, it was very special when I was also able to view that beautiful butterfly on your bush, after it had emerged from it's cocoon. A fine example of God's beautiful creation. We will continue to pray for you all as you grieve your loss.

To Ralph's family, all of you who lived within the circle of his love, I knew him as my spiritual companion, a cherished soul friend and only on Zoom. I think we met once 'in the flesh' at Five Oaks quite a few years ago and long before we developed our Zoom connection. I hold you in my heart as you grieve your loss of Ralph. I will continue to cherish him in my life as he was a wise companion. Thank you for sharing him with people like me. John Buttars

We were both blessed to teach with Ralph at Crestview. His compassion for his students and his joy of teaching was extraordinary. (Although he would never want to be heaped with praise or seek the spotlight) He was a mentor, and always took time for his colleagues with kind words and encouragement. Thank you Ralph.

Matt and Tamara,
I am sorry to hear the sad news. Unfortunately I won't be able to make the visitation. I remember Ralph being very kind. I'm sure he was a great role model for you both growing up, as you both seem to share many of his high character qualities and traits that I'm reading and hearing about over the weekend. Thinking of both of you and your families during this time. Your friend, Greg.

I was so incredibly sad to hear about Ralph’s passing. I met Ralph when I decided to take the course in Spiritual Direction at Five Oaks and He was one of the very wonderful mentors And teachers. A gentle soul and a very kind person. Recently I joined the board for Jubilee and he was such an important part. May his family be surrounded in loving embrace as they go through the grieving and loss of Ralph. I am so very grateful that he graced my life . Heartfelt condolences to his family. Regina Sheere

Dear Anne and family - I was so saddened to hear the news of Ralph’s passing. I remember so well working and going to teacher’s college with Ralph. He was always so kind, caring and generous and was a wonderful teacher. I’m sorry I am away in Prince Edward Island so will not be able to attend his service, but I hope to follow it on line. My heart goes out to you and your family in this time of great loss.
