The Hauenstein Parkinson Center at St. Mary's was an amazingly good thing for my dad as he dealt with Parkinsons and my family greatly benefited from Ralph's vision and gift to Grand Rapids. We are grateful to him for all of the many positive things he accomplished and feel with gratitude his creation of the Parkinson Center. Thanks a million Ralph.
Best, Dale Schriemer

Dear Uncle Ralph,
I will always remember your kindness, your wonderful sense of humor and your playful spirit at our family gatherings. Visiting you and Aunt Grace was such an adventure for a young boy. I will also so fondly remember the advice and encouragement you gave me when we'd meet for dinners at the New York Athletic Club.
Rest in peace Uncle Ralph, you were one of a kind and I'll miss you.
Love,
Craig
