1940 - 2015


We are so sad to share the news of Ralph’s passing on March 19th.

Ralph will be deeply missed by his wife Jean of 48 years, his daughters Elisa and Jodi, their spouses Spring and Bradford, his much loved grandchildren Rose, Naia, Ariel, Rayne and Jasper and his brother Robert.

Ralph was very involved with Gyro in the years that he lived in Nelson and was lovingly known as the “Jokemeister”. He was a committed member of the Nelson United Church and was honored to be a part of the Church Family. Recently he joined the walking clinic where he added to his many other friends.

Ralph could often be found on the golf course or on Baker St. hugging friends new and old. He had a smile and a twinkle for everyone he met. Ralph touched so many people with his kindness.

Please join us on Friday March 27th 11:00 am at the Nelson United church for a celebration of Ralph’s life.
