Ralph was a mechanical engineer and worked for Buda, Tucker Autos, Ford Aircraft Engine Div., and Andrew Corporation. During WWII, Ralph was involved in the top-secret design and production of the B-29 bomber. He retired in 1970.
In 1977, he and Mervane moved to a retirement community in Raymore, Missouri, where he lived until his death in 1981.
