Dad was the first to appreciate and trust your acumen as a realtor. Both Mom and Dad relied on you for many years and we, as their children, were fortunate to "inherit" you after they passed. You have been steadfast and trustworthy through many stages; modernizing Chivas for rental, managing the rental and, ultimately, supervising a $100,000 renovation, staging and selling the property. With some of us on the East Coast, and two others at opposite ends of the Bay Area, you provided the legwork and advice that was invaluable to us all-Ralph included. You went above and beyond what a listing realtor would typically offer as a service to clients.
