He married June Hancock in November of 1947, and they spent most of there married life in Selah, Washington. Later in life he retired from the Naches/Selah Irrigation District and he and June retired to Yakima. Ralph was a natural at almost everything he did. He loved to golf, dance, bowl, play cards and enjoy life. He was an amazing father, grandfather and friend.

After June passed away in 1996, Ralph became good friends with Rose Hards of Naches where the two lived happily until June of 2012 when he moved to Burnet to be with his daughter, granddaughters and great grandchildren. We thank Rose from the bottom of our hearts for everything.
