Title: I lost a friend,

And a client. Ralph Vertrees was a gentleman with land in east Texas, and Arcadia, California. He became a client in 1967, and a friend shortly there after. Over the years I have worked their lands as my own, and they housed my daughter for a time while she was in college in Austin. I have watched them spin land off to their children, and helped in the process.

Ralph was a petroleum attorney, and at age 84 long retired.

He has been my longest term client, and a friend.

Rest in peace, Ralph.

Their passing leaves an empty spot in our lives and good friends can never be replaced. My condolences to you and the family.
