It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Ralph James, a beloved resident of Winter Haven, Florida. Ralph departed this life on June 14, 2024, after a long journey filled with love, dedication, and kindness. He was born on December 2, 1938, in Manor, Georgia, where he spent his early years, forming the foundations of a life well-lived.

Ralph is survived by his loving wife, Joann James, and their cherished family. Through the years, Ralph was a steadfast presence in the lives of those he loved, offering unwavering support and kindness.

Ralph's legacy of love and dedication will endure in the hearts of those who had the privilege of knowing him. Though he is no longer with us, his memory will live on in the stories shared and the lives touched by his presence.

In this time of grief, the family deeply appreciates the outpouring of love and support.
