Hey Ralph.....still sending healing thoughts and Phin Power your way! 
On most days I say: "Wrinkles only go where the smiles have been...."
Sometimes I can only say: "There is no dumbass vaccine......"
If something or someone gets you down, just remember: "In a hundred years it all won’t matter.........."

Re: Ralph Macdonald?
Thanks Matt, I have known for awhile what was keeping Ralph from performing but had the feeling it wasn't for public knowledge, so I didn't publicize it. This article changes things and now we all know that Ralph needs our positive thoughts, prayers and phin power to fight the awful disease!!! Glad you saw this and brought it here.NYCPORT wrote:Here is an article from today's paper. It was a beautiful night!

Re: Ralph Macdonald?
Ditto, Ralph. Your music, your love of your fellow man, and the absolute joy you bring to others is a spirit that nobody can touch.lati2d wrote:My thoughts and prayers go out to you, Ralph. You are missed and we do love you.
We all hope you feel the same love being returned to you that you so generously and selflessly give to each and every one of ys.
Please continue to get well. The joy I'm anticipating when I get to shake your hand again will only be exceeded when it actually happens.
Peace, prayers, and love to you, my friend.

Re: Ralph Macdonald?
bump as I continue to send positive vibes and prayers for healthy days, restful nights, and recovery as God sees fit. I am so glad that you were able to make it on stage at Greatwoods for a bit and that your legacy continues with your children.
Re: Ralph Macdonald?
Amen...always sending up prayers for Ralph and his family and friends. Happy he got to be out on stage to watch his sons perform with Jimmy and the Coral Reefers on Brown Eyed Girl.
