  5. Remembering Ralph our wonderful neighbour. Missing the early morning chats across the road (while in his dressing gown) with coffee cup and cigarette in hand, the gardening advice, the many gmail/email jokes that came into my mail box over all these years, the smiling face, the many conversations about life, the cat tail and a chair, the painting and house maintenance discussions. The neighborhood isn’t
    the same without you.

    Sending our condolences and love to Dianne and family.

    Our condolences to you all.
    You all gave Ralph a beautiful farewell.
    Memories of ours:
    Days in APEX.
    Little Athletics – your screams of encouragement were loudest.
    Special taxi to all.

    Bye Bye
    Back door Ralphie,
    Miss your mischievous grin,
    Miss your special calling card.
    Ding, Ding, Ding.
    Love Rick and Lyn.

  7. So sad to hear of Ralph’s passing. He was a wonderful neighbour when we lived in the same street. My kids loved him. He gave one of them a stuffed toy dog which was called Ralphy. Deepest sympathy to all the family. Loved and remembered by the Spark Family.
