Ralph Bonds Obituary

Ralph, you have a beautiful great nephew, his name is Riley, he favors you. You would love him as he would you. I hope you can see him from Heaven and watch over him. Love your sister Nancy

Dearest Linda,

You know your in our thoughts through out this year and especially this coming week. I know what it feels like to lose your soul mate. I feel for you. You were much luckier than I was because you got to spend more time and share more memories than I did with my husband before he left my side. It is a lonely time and I know you get sick of hearing it but time will heal your pain. It is so important for you to be with people that love you and Ralph. He would want you to be happy in life and to be loved by family and friends. I know Nancy has given you her full support and shown you that she cares for you. She is a special person to me as well. I know her love is sincere. I will continue to ask God to lead you in the direction that he best chooses for you. Know that I love you and I am thinking of you. God bless. And know that your welcome here.

Love, Debbie

Dear Linda,
I wish I had some kind of magical power that could take you (and us)back in time and erase this nightmare, but I don't. I miss him and my heart breaks for you everyday. I hope that one day I will be as fortunate as you and find the love of a life time as you and Ralph. You are still so blessed to have someone love you the way Ralph does. I pray for you in this up coming week. I know it is not your way to ask anyone to be with you, but just know if you need us for anything, we are just a phone call away. No we do not hurt the way you do, but we can relate on some level. Sometimes we pray for mercy from this pain and it feels God is not listening. But know that he sends people like me, Mom, and Susan to help when you feel that you can no longer go on. We are here Aunt Linda. We are all patiently waiting for you to ask. Remember Ralph's blood runs through our veins, we are apart of him, and we want to do what he would expect of us and that is to take care of you and love you as our family. YOU ARE OUR FAMILY!!!! I love you Aunt Linda!!!

Psalms 34:18

The LORD is near to the brokenhearted, and saves the crushed in spirit.

The world was kissed when Ralph was born, so many people were touched by his life. He brought many smiles to the faces of those who knew him. Ralph, you will truly be missed and never forgotten, you're always in my heart. Linda, you will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Linda,

I was shocked when Brenda called and told me about Ralph's death.You have my deepest sympathy.

The last time I saw Ralph he was walking upstairs to your office.He always said hello.

Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Linda,

I never got the chance like many others did to know Ralph on a personal level, but from what i've heard, he was an excellant man. Know that we are here for you in the event that you just need anything! You're in our prayers.

Love Wendi

Dear Linda,

I was so so sorry to hear of this shocking news. I did not get the opportunity to know your husband, although i did see him in passing a few times. I do know that you both seemed very happy together. I know this is going to be a trying time for you, but just remember that God is watching over you and that you have been, and will continue to be in our prayers. If you need to talk, or need a friend, please please call me..you know how to get in touch with me, and i promise i will be there for you.

Aunt Linda,



I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Uncle Ralph was a great man and just a great person to be around. He will be truly missed. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Please accept my deepest sympathies.

I met Ralph in 1978 and since then we had shared a valued freindship. As I fumbled through learning to be a district manager, I soon realized that his calm, cool, and humor made the work days much easier. He was actually a mentor to me in those early years. As a manager he took great pride in his work, as a district manager he lead professionally, and as a friend he was genuine and caring. Ralph will be sadly missed and always remembered. I will remember him best as a true friend.

Dear Linda, Jessica and I are so sorry for your loss, our prayers are with you.

It was truly a priveledge to meet Ralph back in March. A very generous and funny man. Our prayers are with you, Linda, and your entire family...and dogs.

Linda,

I can't tell you how shocked I was to see in the paper that Ralph had passed away. I am so sorry. I have always thought about what a loving couple the two of you were...seeing you go upstairs to your office and seeing him pretty much on a daily basis. He always had a friendly smile and always waved and spoke. My heart is breaking for you..Please know that God will help you through this most difficult time. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Once again, I'm very sorry.

Dear Linda,

We will miss Ralph very much. He was such a sweet and funny person. I will always remember the kind things he did for others and the last time we visited your home. Thank you for loving my uncle and his family. I pray for you at this time and my regards to you and your family in this time of loss. I love you uncle Ralph....Love, niece Debbie, Brice and Taylor

Please accept my deepest sympathies. Ralph and I shared many years together at Meldisco. He was a true friend. I met Ralph in 1978, and right away we hit it off. He became a mentor to me, and I think he got a kick out of my worrisome ways as I fumbled through trying to learn how to be a district manager. He always had a way of seeing the glass half full, and kept his cool. His sense of humor made the days at work much easier for us who had the pleasure to work with him. As a manager, he took great pride in his work, as a district manager he lead professionally, and as a friend he was genuine and caring. He will never be forgotten.

Miss Linda, I am sorry that you are sad and that this sad thing has happened to you. I enjoyed being at your home and I liked spending time with uncle Ralph .He was a very nice man. And thanks for getting "little bit "for my ninnie.You and uncle Ralph made her so happy. Hope you will be happy again soon. Love you , Taylor Lee (Debbie's son)

I did not get to spend alot of time with Uncle Ralph. However, the times I did get to spend with him were great. He could always make you laugh. I love you and miss you. I am sorry for your loss Aunt Linda. I love you too. Both are in my prayers.

Ralph always had a way to make us laugh at work. I always appreciated his sarcastic manner. He made the job fun. He will truly be missed. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

The loss of someone so close is difficult to bear. We share your grief.

What we will remember most about Ralph was his sense of humor. He was our brother-in-law and a very dear person. We all get caught up in day to day life and forget how percious family is. Although we didn't see him as often as we would have liked, he will be missed. Our deepest sympathy goes out to Ralph's famliy, and especially to our sister, Linda. We love you.

I WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS MY SYMPATHY TO RALPHS FAMILY.

RALPH WAS A VERY FUN PERSON TO BE AROUND.

Dear Linda,



Thinking of you and praying for you.



My deepest sympathy to you and your family.



Please let me know if I can help in any way.

Dear, Linda
