Ralph and I were married for 51 years served in the US Air Force at NKP, Thailand from August 1970 through August 1971, this is where he became exposed to Agent years later he was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, cancer of the prostate and had DBS placed in July of 2013 and it worked for awhile, but he kept falling and fracturing bones; first the hip, then the femur, and lastly the left hand. I kept him at home with nursing assistants help per his request (I am a retired RN). Ralph was a great husband and father. He died peacefully May 13, 2020. We were sealed in the Nashville Temple so we will be together again for all time and eternity and honey, I miss you so badly. The Book of Mormon teaches us that this is possible if we continue to follow say this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen,
