I know I have said this before however I feel the need to share with you just once more. I met your parents Irene and Ralph at the Singing Group we all attended. From the very beginning I was struck by your parents relationship. They were both so honestly loving and your Mum clearly just adored him. It was so moving to watch the rhythm of their communication and amazing connection that they had developed with each other. Both of them managing to maintain a sense of humour within this new changing relationship brought about by the cruel progression of your Mum's illness. Ralph had so much charm and as is noticeable in the photo on this page, there was always a twinkle and such a force of personality. They had managed to create a very unique double act that made them such a pleasure to be with. I always went to the Singing Group looking forward to the opportunity of ‘hanging out’ with them. Your parents made such a deep impression on me and I genuinely fell in love with both of them. Without my own Mum I would not have had the privilege to meet your family and as the generation brought up by 'The Survivors', we are all pretty influenced both for good and bad by that unique generation of humans. I send you my heartfelt condolences and best wishes. Thank you so much Ralph for how you enriched my life and my Mum's even within the short time we all spent together. May all our lives be as well lived as your parents!
