❤️ With heavy hearts, we share the loss of our beloved dad, husband, boss, and friend, Ralph Waggoner. ❤️
We have been at a loss for words these past few days as we grieve the loss of a truly special man—someone who meant everything to our family and touched the lives of so many.
Ralph was Stogey’s. It was a huge part of his life, and the people who walked through those doors—our customers, employees, friends, and neighbors—meant so much to him. Stogey’s was more than a business to Ralph; it was a place where he built relationships, welcomed people, and shared his heart. His presence will forever be part of what Stogey’s is.
We cannot thank everyone enough for the outpouring of love, kind words, prayers, and positive thoughts you have shared with our family. Your messages and support have carried us through some incredibly difficult days and have meant more to us than we could ever express.
Although our hearts are broken, we are deeply grateful for the life Ralph lived and for the privilege of having him as our dad, husband, boss, and friend. There will never be another person like him, and we will carry his memory with us always.
Most of all, we find comfort in knowing that Ralph is now in Heaven with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. That assurance gives us peace even in the midst of our grief. 🙏🏻❤️
Stogey’s will be closed Wednesday, September 23rd, for Ralph’s graveside service. We appreciate your understanding as our family takes this time to honor him, celebrate his life, and say goodbye.
As we move forward, we will continue to carry Ralph’s legacy with us. We will strive to treat people as he did—with kindness, respect, grace, and a genuine love for others. That is how he lived, and it is the legacy we hope to continue through Stogey’s.
Thank you for loving Ralph, supporting our family, and being part of the Stogey’s family. We are forever grateful. ❤️
