Patricia McCarroll wrote a sympathy message

“My prayers and deep sympathy to Ralph Stamey's family, I am so sorry to hear of Ralph's passing. He was my Cousin, and his Mother and my Mom were Sisters (Young sisters). I remember when the Stamey Family visited us in North Highlands, CA, sometime in the Sixties. We all had so much fun! His Sister Barbara played my Mom's piano (rag time), and we all enjoyed being together. My prayers for the Stamey Family, in best regards, Patricia McCarroll, Elizabeth, Colorado.”
