I echo Jim Morley's eloquent homage to Ralph and his friendships with the misbegotten alumni of the BCPO. He was a great man and friend who understood how we all need each other. I miss him.
From the late 1970s, hosting pool parties at his Cinnaminson home for BCPO staff and alumni, until as recently as last December at an annual holiday meal, Ralph made sure that people kept in touch. In between, there were house parties for alumni and their partners, regular poker nights (including lobster and steak sleepovers on LBI), as well as Phillies and/or Yankees games from Boston to Washington. None of those things would have happened but for the cat-herding talents that Ralph had honed as first assistant prosecutor and applied with good humor. He was the glue that kept us together. We loved him and will miss him.
