    I”m so sorry to hear of the passing of Ralph. There were times when Roz thought he was going to be leaving this earth, but so many times he lived by the C.L.B. Motto “Fight the Good Fight”. And that’s what he did, until he was at peace with meeting his Lord and Maker.

    The thoughts and prayers of all Officers and members of the C.L.B. are with your family, and know that he’ll be watching and guiding you from up above.

    To Aunt Ros, Mike, Marcel and Mark,

    Your husband, father and our Uncle Ralph was a kind, caring and optimistic man, who saw the light and positive side of life always. I will always remember his willingness to help others, and literally give the shirt off his back when I needed it. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time and in the days and weeks ahead. He will always be missed but I hope your memories will be some comfort to you.

    May Family and Friends comfort you,
Faith uphold you and 
Loving memories heal your heart.
