Ralph was born and raised in Lipton, Saskatchewan. He graduated from Concordia College in Edmonton, Alberta. He then went on to a successful career in forestry working in reforestation (silviculture). Ralph's work involved travel to all parts of Canada. He also was in China teaching reforestation.
Together, we were world travellers to Europe, all 50 states and China making wonderful memories.
Ralph loved being a wood artisan creating amazing furniture and crafts.
Ralph will be deeply missed by his loving wife Elaine, his daughters Gayle (Doug) and Leslie (Kevin), grandson Adam (Chloe), granddaughter Laura (Anthony), grandson Jordan and 5 great grandchildren.
