God Bless Ralph.
If you were here in the East during the late 60s-70s S/S and Stocker wars you know what a great impact he had.Who anywhere can't remember Ray Allens rag-top? The Truppi-Kling organization is still a powerhouse today thanks in great part to Ralph.

Sorry for the loss of your friend, Wally. Rest in peace, Ralph. There are a lot of drivers up there who I'd bet are looking for a good engine man...WC1
