  1. My deepest Sympathy. To know Ralph and your whole family for so long has been a privilege. How exciting to have you both, our friends in our Florida neighborhood. Ralph, rest in peace, my dearest Bingo Buddy and golf cart escort. Was looking forward to many more escapades and pool parties but God always takes the good ones. You’ll be with us in spirit always. We’ll miss you.

  2. Donna & family, Ralph was a dear friend. We will miss him from Colorado. You are in our hearts and in our prayers. We love you and will always remember Ralph. He is unforgettable –
    Bob & Denise Baker

  3. To all the family,
    We are so saddened to hear of the passing of Ralph.
    Please know you are in our prayers.
    We pray that all your wonderful memories bring you comfort
    as you honor and remember him.
    We are so sorry for your loss.
    Dean and Laurene Rupert and Family

  4. We first met as strangers but we bonded over our profession and our friendship became special and strong. our time together with RFD and after will always hold a special place in my life.

    You lived a life of service to others. But, it’s not the years you lived but the lives you touched is your greatest legacy. you walked with steady steps always focusing on moving toward what was important. you provided sunshine and positive outcomes to family, friends, fellow firefighter and the citizens of Rochester.

    I thank you for your support, guidance and friendship. The hardest part of our friendship is saying
    goodbye. This is not a permanent goodbye its a pause our earthly friendship. We will meet again.

    Rest in peace my friend.

  5. I worked with Ralph at the RFD for a number of years. During these years Ralph proved to be a good man and a good worker with a quick mind, which allowed him to become second in command in the RFD. Also, Ralph had a great sense of humor, which made him very popular around the firehouse. He will be remembered fondly.

  6. Donna, we remember you and Ralph and your children from our days as neighbors on Snowberry Crescent, and remember what nice people you were. We are so sorry to hear of Ralph’s passing and send our deepest condolences and prayers to you and your family.

  7. My friendship with Ralph dates back approx. 55 years. We first met through mutual friends. and became close buds ever since. We shared many, many good times through the years, especially raising our families together, and Ralph became like a brother to me, who I will miss dearly. My sincere condolences go out to Donna and the entire Privitere family hoping all the fond memories they share will ease the burden of their devastating loss of a great man who will remain in our hearts forever. Love you brother…..see you in the next life.

  8. My sincere condolences to Ralph’s family and friends. Ralph and I shared a friendship in our youth and early adulthood. Plenty of good times and memories of those days ran through my head when I heard the sad news of Ralph’s passing. Rest in peace Ralph, you will be sorely missed.
