Ralph's AHS 1956 classmates will miss him. He was a quiet, unassuming man who flew 238 sorties during two tours of 'Nam. He received the Distinguished Flying Cross for close quarters support of the ground troops. A couple of years ago, he told me that he was glad to not get two medals: 1) No purple heart because a person gets hurt to receive that medal and 2) No medal of honor because those are mostly posthumous awards. Bless your soul. Lowell A. Benson - Shoreview, MN

I am sad to hear about the passing of Ralph. I am grateful to have met such a great guy. I only saw Ralph a few times a year during deer hunting season with Greg and Anita Debilzen, and he was interested in how the hunt was going and always had something good to say. God Bless You Ralph. We will miss you. Kevin and Sheryl Daas Hugo MN
