    I've known Ralph for around 40 years since the time he moved to St. Petersburg. He had such a great heart, such wisdom, and always kind. He could make you laugh in a heartbeat. He loved his family and spoke to fondly of them and so often. He was such a gentle and warm soul. I was just devastated to learn of his passing. While we didn't see each other often, we did somehow always stay in touch and be able to pick right up where we left off. I have nothing but good thoughts of Ralph and like anybody who knew him, I admired him for more reasons than I can list. My sincere condolences to his family in the loss of such a wonderful family member and human being.

    To the family, my sincere condolences in the passing of Ralph. We worked together for many years and he shared with us many of those family and often funny stories. We often talked a lot about our similar familys. He taught me so much through laughter. He always followed the stars, because he was a star and will always be a star in my heart. He was such talker and lover of life and of his family. Yes he was an entertainer too. His nickname was Rico Suave. He will be sorely missed by all of his many Verizon friends. I know I certainly will miss him and I know we meet again....just to catch up on our family stories. RIP my dear friend Ralph. Love Lola/Pat Bennett

    Ralph had a great sense of humor and I remember his laughter. He was a natural leader and teacher. Always sharing knowledge that might help someone. Life of the party. He had a love of advanced astrology and made us look at the world and universe in a unique way. Rest in Peace friend.
