Ralph-In Loving Memory

When I was very young I had a brother named Ralph.

He was a wonderful brother with a heart of pure

gold. He was a very simple man who loved his

family and adored our mother. The very few

pleasures he derived from life seem to have been

television, (Lost In Space and Dark Shadows were

his favorites), The Knights of Columbus, and

taking care of Mom. In fact, he lived with mom

his whole life. I don't think he felt comfortable

or needed anywhere else. After Mom fell asleep I

think Ralph just found it no longer necessary to

live so , one day, he too fell asleep. I wonder

if he ever knew just how much I loved him?!! I

miss him so very much and I just thank God I will

see him at the Gathering Together!
