Ralph was a dedicated farmer and rancher his whole life and began working the land with his Dad at the age of nine. He helped his father and brother raise some of the first wheat crops in Beaver County. Ralph's roots run deep in Beaver County. In fact, he lived within a three mile radius of his birthplace until 2008 when health reasons made him and Marjorie move to Spearman, TX. The number of time she has left his farm could probably be counted on two hands. As far as Ralph was concerned, the grass was never greener than in his own pasture.

Ralph has always been there to support his family, friends and community. He served on the Garrett School Board for over twenty years and was on the Beaver County Election Board for over thirty years.

Ralph was a faithful man and he believed that honesty was the most important virtue a man could possess. He came from the era that a handshake and his word was a bond not to be broken. He truly was a devoted husband, father and grandfather. Although he may be gone, we all have wonderful memories never to be forgotten.

Survivors include two daughters and their husbands, Bonita and Phil Scott of Bayfield, CO and Claudine and Bob Hardy of Spearman; two grandsons, Allen and Leslie Gardiner of Frisco, TX and Chad and Tara Gardiner of Frisco, TX; and a granddaughter, Allen and Leslie Hunzeker of McKinney, TX; and five great-grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Claude and Nettie McCune; his wife of 67 years; a brother, Raymond McCune; and two sisters, Jeruscha Palmer and DeAlva Clark.

The family requests memorials be to Hansford Hospice, 707 S. Roland, Spearman TX 79081.
