Ralph was fatally burned when he poured gasoline on the kitchen range to hurry the fire along. His mother was badly burned on her hands and arms in an attempt to help him. He was unable to talk but it is believed that he thought he had coal oil instead of gasoline.
Ralph was unmarried and worked as a mechanic at the Wood Fare Box company.
