Rest in Peace Uncle. We will keep the good memories and there were many of them.
My condolences to the family. Ralph and Maureen were neighbors in the Zinno subdivisiĂłn in Pueblo County and our sons were in Boy Scouts together. Very nice man and I’m sorry for your loss.
Our sincere condolences to Ralph’s family and friends. As newcomers to the area in Westcliffe, Ralph was welcoming and as city folk he taught us important things about mountain living. He was always there for us and didn’t expect anything in return. May God’s comfort and great memories give you strength during this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Sam and Gloria Guerrero
