Dear Gigi, I was sorry to read of your loss in the G.C. News online. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Love Nancy Kirk Smith

Gigi and family, We are so sorry about the passing of Ralph. We are in FL for the winter and not able to come to the service but our thoughts and sympathy are with you. We have many good memories of Christmas parties for the barn volunteers at your house. Our prayers are with you and all the family. Take care. We look forward to seeing you some time at the barn in the future, Gigi. Sincerely, Sarah and William Strobel

Oh, Gigi. I had been trying to reach you for several weeks to let you know about things going on with my mother. The phone number I had didn't go to you. Then I happened to log onto the GC News website and saw the obituary. Eerie timing on my part. On behalf of my mother, I would like to say that she will be forever grateful for Ralph's friendship to my father. If she was able, I know she would willingly make a donation to the Blue Ridge Humane Soc. I will contact my mother's guardian and request that it be done. I know when the O'Malley family were her next door neighors, she entrusted y'all to look after her animals when she might have gone out of town. I remember Ralph as a real 'charachter' - he had a zest for life that was inspirational to me. I have no doubt that he effected others in the same way. You were fortunate to have spent so many years with an amazing man. You and the family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Ralph Jr., I am so sorry to hear of your father's passing. I know that you were very close to him. I just wanted you to know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Ryan, Wyatt, Bailey, and Oliver Holbert.

We joined the GCFD the same year. I was Chief in 1972 and left in 1980. I called his old friend & my brother-in-law Tom Cuff And told him. I now live in Lexington, KY and trevel thru Henderson ville often, but didn't know that Ralph lived there.

Dear Gigi, Danny and Ralph, You are in our hearts and prayers as we think about and celebrate the life of Uncle Ralph. He was a wonderful, gentle, softspoken man, with a sense of humor that was always playful, (if not conspiratorial). He was an inclusive person, who could bring people together and make them at ease with a quiet quip, wink and a smile. He was a devoted family man, loving husband and father and I am better for having known him. Ir is in this way he will continue to inspire me over the years to come.

Gigi, Ralph and Dan, We have known you all as if forever. It doesn't seem possible that Ralph is not physically with us anymore.

May God give you peace and strength to withstand your loss. Love, Dianne and Tom and Family

Dear Gigi, May the Lord hold you up during this time, only He can give us the strength to endure the loss of a loved one.

Please know I am here for you. Love, Cindy
