Jack Ralph has enjoyed observing, studying, and socializing with and taking a real interest in \“average and otherwise normal\” persons of all ages, married and single, exchanging with them their experiences, interests, backgrounds, cultures, languages, occupations, hobbies, matching life stories and problems with understanding. He has been married to a beautiful and bright woman of red hair, with athletic skills and a sense of humor for over 60 years. They have traveled to or lived in many of the United States. They shared two sons, several grand children and in-laws who have also given them pleasure. Jack is, therefore, qualified to write about love.
