More tributes to Ralph:

Thank you for the update. Is an annual award (plaque, scholarship, etc.) to a high achiever in chemical lab safety being considered to provide a lasting recognition of Ralph’s considerable contributions to Chemical Lab Safety and Education? This seems more than fitting to me – it seems necessary. [Here with current interest rates, perpetual scholarships start at $25k.]

FROM Robin Izzo, in response to Ruth Ann:

DCHAS is discussing ways to recognize Ralph perpetually.

I feel sad! My condolences to his family. 

When he wrote here some time back that he had health issues, I didn't imagine 

this will happen so soon. May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace.
