Ralph Jenkins was a steel company representative. When he'd go call on Ford he'd drive his Lincoln. When he called on GM, he'd rent a Cadillac, and when he'd call on Chrysler, he'd lease a big Chrysler.

When Ralph passed away he was cremated, but had no funeral. The ashes were given to Dick and Eleanor Paulsen. They had his ashes on a shelf in their hall closet. Dick took the ashes and a hand trowel and buried the ashes at the cemetery in a couple places by his parents, Dave and Martha. He has no headstone. They are buried in a cemetery in Niles, OH.
