Ralph Dickerman painted four portraits for my family, Dr. and Mrs. Arthur Schoch. Three of them are hanging in my house and one of them is in my sister’s house. I remember him when I was a child. I just looked him up and found this. If his family would like pictures of the painings, I would be glad to send them.
Now that I think about it, I suspect it was his father who painted the portraits.
So sorry to hear so late of the passing of this fine gentleman. Ralph did some outstanding art restoration for me 10 years ago and I needed some more work performed… Was feeling unlucky and had that dread of his passing when the phones and e-mail bounced. His work will live forever… God Bless his soul… He is missed…

I knew Ralph many years ago…..moved away from the Houston aread and lost touch. What a very talented man he was. I only met Stephanie….but send my sympathy to all his family.

Ralph was a mentor to me in so many ways. He was my first real introduction to painting, classical music, and stimulating conversation. I can’t thank him enough for the real time he spent with me and for sharing his great mind, humor, and broad view of the world. God Bless you, Ralph and all who are with you.
