Marilyn by his side at their home in Anniston, Alabama. Ralph was of the
Baptist Faith, was saved during a Revival held by Rev. Terry Winsteads. Ralph
served with great pride 4 years in the United States Air Force where he
received many accommodations. His passion was in the field of robotics where he
strived and achieved being one of the best in programming and maintenance. He
was an avid Harley rider most all of his life and enjoyed that to the
fullest, where he did many charitable rides and always paid homage to his Veterans
