Dearest Mich and family:

My deepest condolences at Ralph's passing. What a wonderful obituary and cannot believe how many years it has been since SecPac when he and I first met. The halls are probably still filled with the fragrance of his great cologne.

Much love and will pray for peace and tranquility. May he be in peace and watch over you and protect you.

So sorry I could not be their with you and the famiy. You know why and thanks for understanding.

Much love,

John Curcio

My sincere condolences to Barbara, the boys and their families. Fond memories of many years ago in Brooklyn and Jersey and all our kids growing up. Rest In Peace Ralph.

Michelle I was heartbroken to hear about Ralph’s passing. My prayers are with you and your family. Love Joanne

Doesnt pay to question as there are no answers. I lost my lovemate last year and now you lost yours. Before their times for sure. We spent many great times together and I will always cherish them as did Debby.

i really loved you guys and respected Ralph for all his accomplishments.

I am truly sorry.

Dearest Michele,

Tom and I send our deepest condolences and sympathies to you and the family.

I realize word cannot diminish your feelings of loss but my hope is you will find comfort in knowing you provided the most compassionate care to Ralph in his time of need. Although the feelings of sadness and loss cloud what once was, in time the wonderful memories of earlier days together will begin to wrap you in their warmth and love and begin to provide you with lasting peace and tranquility. Ralph was definitely a gentleman and always fun to be with!

May the Lord provide you with strength and knowledge that He is with you always!

Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers today and in your journey ahead!

Deepest condolences to the Marinello Family - we are so sorry for your loss.

Maryellen and Steve Rodriguez

Michele and Family,

My deepest condolence! Sorry for your loss. Will keep you in my prayers.

Maria and I extend our sincerest condolences to Ralph's family. Knowing that he now rests in peace should comfort you all.

My fondest memories was playing golf with Ralph and Ralph Jr, John and Michael. Those were good times and I learned a lot from him. Too bad we couldn't keep it going because my game still needs a lot of work!

And let us not forget the Super Bowl Parties!

Our prayers to everyone and God Bless.

Ralph was the consummate professional I was lucky enough to have worked with at Citi for many years and call a true friend. His guidance, professionalism and work ethic throughout the years benefited not only me but countless others within the industry. Will continue to have many many good thoughts and fond memories of him for the foreseeable future.

Rest In Peace Ralph.

Sincerest condolences to Michelle and the family.

Michael, you and your family are in my prayers. So sorry to hear of your loss.

Dear Ralph,

When I heard the news on Sunday about your passing from your son Michael I was filled with regret and flushed with memories.

I first met you Ralph, one evening late spring of 1992 at your former home in Hazlet. I should be clear, because I know I had first seen you in fall of 1991 on a Saturday morning cheering my teammates for freshman football along with your son who was a great wide receiver for us.

Now as a father myself, I regret not meeting you sooner and complimenting you on your sons excellent play since he benefited from your support.

Later the next spring I “saw” you again at a freshman baseball game cheering your favorite outfielder who batted capably in the middle of the lineup. We didn’t meet but I was able to see how proud you were of your boy.

Finally our introduction came a few days after Mikes (I can call him Mike), 17th Birthday. Unbeknownst to all humanity at the time your son and I forged a partnership in a business of comradeery. We went on to specialize in adventures too numerous and inappropriate to list here but out specialties include Mets commisory, road trips, girls, golf, career mishaps, wiffle ball, girls, and stupid fights with each other.

So I have memoroes and regrets like we all do. I remember your words the first night of the partnership , “Don’t do anything stupid, but when you do, you can call me, here is money for gas. Have fun”.

I remember years later your kindness and pity on me in Ocean City, I regret not thanking your more thoroughly for protecting me from Johns abuse.

Ralph, for your surviving loved ones, on behalf of my wife and boys along with our extended family and friends who know and love MIchael. I have been asked to extend our prayers and best wishes. We feel terrible for the loss of your father and regret his passing and hope you can find peace in the happy memories and achievements of his life.

Ralph was a true gentleman and a mentor. The value of the handshake, trust and mutual respect were his core values. He accepted his team, his clients and even his adversaries as friends. Please accept my sincere condolences /JZ

Michael and family my deepest sympathies on the loss of your dad Know that the Grief does not get easier as the days go by but you do you get to the place where you’ll remember him fondly and laugh instead of cry and his soul now rests in peace he is no longer in pain. Take solace in that and rejoice the life and legacy he left behind. Your entire family is my prayers Pam’s friend at C&D
