To an integral man, a small obituary. You elected to forgo the riches and desires to minister to the hispanic community. A community that was not your own but is now , more than your own. I salute you Father Ralph and your dedication to live along your people as one of them, dressed like the bark on a tree, in condition only you could endure. And in death grandiose.... I will miss you Father Ralph. I will miss your love for your community and the times I would make empanadas for you.
