Helen, I'm thinking of you, wishing you the best and remembering good times so long, long ago. When I remember Ralph he always has a smile on his face. Perhaps he's smiling now.

You are all in our thoughts and prayers. He will be greatly remembered as a very caring gentleman who was always helping as he was needed. He greatly influenced both of us as we grew up.
Love to all of you.

A person would have to search far and wide to find a better human being than Ralph Ridge. I have know Ralph since the days of the Up and Coming Livestock Club where the hard working Ridge brothers were such key members that we had to wait until they were done farming for the day and cleaned up before we could start a meeting. No doubt they took a bath in Bokes Creek before getting cleaned up. Ralph was a true friend. If you were in conversation with him, you received his complete attention. His wry smile and good nature would shine through even when his hearing was nearly gone. He was an expert farmer and gardener, a talented mushroom collector even in competition with the white-tailed deer. He was a reliable churchman and community member, delivering the meals with Helen to the Civic Center as long as he was able. There never will be enough human beings like Ralph Ridge to go around.

Ralph will surely be missed by all who knew him
when we were members of the church he taught Sunday School he was serious about his faith in Jesus Christ and wasn't afraid to proclaim it. We thank him for his dedication and his direction for it has helped us in our own lives. Prayers for Helen and the rest of the family. steve & clarissa
