He was brought into his faith by baptism at Zion Lutheran Church and was confirmed at First English Lutheran Church. Ralph was a faithful and dedicated member of Our Savior’s Lutheran Church in Appleton where he served as a communion assistant and usher.

    Ralph is survived by his son, Ralph William; his granddaughters: Rosemary Lynn, Tina, and Emily; and by many loving nieces and nephews and their families.

    He was preceded in death by his wife, Carol; daughter-in-law, Karen; his parents: George and Elizabeth Acker; his infant sister, Edith; his brothers: George and Harold; and sisters-in-law: Lois, Delores, Esther, and Althea Acker.
