PROVO - Ralph Southwick, 90, passed away Friday, November 30, 2001 in Provo.
He was born in the Ogden Valley on April 21, 1911, to William Isaac and Mary Louise Campbell Southwick. He grew up in the Western States with seven brothers and two sisters.

Ralph married Erma Sophia Shupe on December 11, 1936 in the Salt Lake LDS Temple. Patsy Ruth and Ralph Bruce were born to this couple before Erma passed away on November 27, 1940.

Surviving are his wife, Phyllis; five children and their spouses, 24 grandchildren, and 35 great grandchildren. Ralph is also survived by two brothers, Raymond Southwick, Twin Falls, Idaho; and Dale Southwick, Dietrich, Idaho.
