Ralph loved to read history and military books and had a large library on the subject. He loved good restaurants, food and shopping. Thanks to Home Care Starbuck. Having his girls come in four times daily allowed him to stay in his home for a lot longer. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you Station 3, Tuxedo Villa, you are special people.
