My sympathy and prayers to all of you on the loss of a great husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. I did not know Ralph until recently when he was part of a group in the Little Rock Scripture program at St. Marks’s. I enjoyed his comments and his humor and was glad to come to know him. He also helped my husband Joe in the St. Mark Library. He was a great model of someone who keeps on learning and giving, even when it becomes hard to get around. May he rest in peace after a life well-lived. Annette Kane
When we first moved to Vienna in 1978, Ralph was one of the first neighbors we got to know through his delivering the Washington Post. I still remember his friendly greeting as he stopped by to personally collect the monthly fee. I wish I had stayed in better touch. I hope the memory of a loving father will console you in your loss.
Dear DeLaVergne Family, My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. My God guide you through the difficult times. Peace and Love to you all.
DeLaVergne Family, Sorry to hear of the loss of your father. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
