Ralph McQueen breathed his last on April 4, 2018 as his wife of 60 years, Wilma, held his hand, and daughters Debra and Diane sang many of his favorite gospel songs.
Ralph was a faithful Christian worshiping with the fellowship of believers at the Traverse City Church of Christ. A graveside service was held on Friday, April 6 with the preacher, Matthew French presiding. As the coffin was lowered, the small group joined Debra and Diane in singing "Nearer My God to Thee". The service closed with a prayer after all joined in reciting the Twenty-third Psalm. A memorial service will take place on Saturday April 28, 2018 at the Traverse City Church of Christ at 2:00pm with a meditation to begin at 1:45pm.
