Another sad day with the passing of Ralph Adams as advised by Ned (Ron) Kelly.

Bob, from Jetje Adams: Ralph Graham Adams R42352 intake Jan 60 passed away Sun 19 Oct. funeral arrangements to follow from family. Ned.

Ralph was a term mate to both Ned and myself. He was a well regarded individual with whom Ned and I had some fun MOBI times. Unfortunately I saw nothing of Ralph until our long number of years reunions started to occur, and it was always a pleasure to meet up with Ralph, and of course Ned, on these occasions. He will not be forgotten.

Richard de Vries, a friend of Ralph's forwarded the following and the attachment:
