Ralph A. Munoz, 92, passed away on October 21, 2021, in Litchfield Park, Arizona. He was born in Yuma, Arizona and was a lifetime resident until his move to a group home January 2021.

Ralph served in the U.S. Army, 1950-52, during the Korean war. After his return from War, he worked over 40 years for the U.S. Department of the Interior in Yuma. He enjoyed cooking his requested grilled chicken for family events, jogging along the canal banks, and his daily walks of 10 miles. He was always active whether it was helping family with a home project or offering car rides to those in need. And of course, he will always be remembered for his witty humor and clever one liner's.
