Gentlemen,
I received this e-mail today. I first met Ralph at our 2004 reunion in Reno. Struck me as a good person. If I find out further information, I'll post it here.

Dear Gary,
I found your holiday greeting on my brother (Ralph Hawfitch) computer.
I am sorry to inform you that he has recently passed away.
The funeral arrangements are being made through the Washburn-McReavy (Coon Rapids) branch and will probably be mid to late next week. If you would care to contact them, the phone number is 763-676-1000.
