I'm so sorry to just now be hearing that your Husband and Dad passed away. I met Ralph almost 50 years ago under the viaduct off Broadway. I could tell he was a good man and the times I had business with him and Stanley over the years confirmed my feelings from that initial meeting.  My prayers will be that God comforts you and your heart will be full of the great memories that a man liked Ralph left on your family, church and community.

Let me tell you one of my encounters with Mr. Fleming. I made a dumb mistake on a piece of farm equipment.  Short story, I needed a left hand metric tap, a friend of mine told me, he only knew one man who may have one. I went to his shop,  he let me take the tap with me, with the reassurance I would have it back early next morning . I never really knew how great a man he was until I read his obituary.

Ralph always had a smile when I would walk into his shop. I loved talking fishing with him. His work quality was second to none. I remember taking a broken piece of a backhoe boom to him and asking if it would hold if he fixed it. He replied "You broke it once already didn't you". Of course it held as long as I owned the machine! He will be missed.

Ralph "Moon" Fleming.  Where do you start.  I have known this man and his family for over 50 years.  We have fished together, golfed together and shared alot of good times at the lake.  He was a true friend to everyone.  He was a wonderful husband, father, father-in-law, grandfather, great grandfather and to several children, just "Papaw Ralph".  He never met a stranger because everyone knew him and he knew everybody.  For this reason, he once made the comment that he could never have an affair!  (Even at Tellico Ramp at midnight somebody knew him there).   I have known 2 true southern gentlemen in my life.  One was my dad and the other Ralph Fleming.  You will be missed but never forgotten.  Our thoughts and prayers will be with all of you - Leona, Stanley and family.  We Love You All!!

Fleming Family,
We are grieving with you and praising God at the same time for the hope Ralph had and now is enjoying to it's fullness.   My wife and I were blessed to know him for almost 10 years.   His smile warmed our hearts !   His Christlike servant heart was evident as well.   He would be out mowing along the road at our place and if he saw our drive needed some weeds cut down, he would come on in and mow them.   He was very compassionate towards us when we lost a grandchild back in 2020.   Absolutely loved seeing him and Stanley fishing together, and enjoyed some dockside conversations with them both.   We love you all and pray that you are comforted by the promised Holy Spirit during this very difficult time and as you grieve this wonderful man's loss.   We will miss him too.
