Ralph grew to manhood on the same farm he was born on. He attended the North Star rural school and the Siam Church of Christ. He was united in marriage to Ferne Perkins, September 21, 1940. They moved to a farm west of Bedford where they were blessed with two children, Glenn Edward and Karen Louise. In 1948, they bought and moved to a farm southeast of Hopkins. He was a member of the First Christian Church of Hopkins and the Siam Masonic Plumb Lodge #285. Ralph received his 50-year membership pin in 1989. Ralph was preceded in death by his parents, two sisters, Mae Thurman, and Zelma Moellenberndt; one brother, Paul Bix; two sisters-in-law, Orpha Bix and Nina Bix and two brothers-in-law, Melvin Thurman and Elmer Moellenberndt. Left to cherish his memory are his wife, Ferne of the home; son Glenn and wife Sharon of Hopkins; one daughter, Karen and husband Richard of Sheridan, MO; one brother, William Bix of New Market; grandchildren Glenda Stringer, Larry Bix and wife Melody of Hopkins, Jerome Bix and wife Amber of Maryville, Vickie and husband Bud Brown of Platte City, MO and Jason Swaney and friend Annette of Bedford, IA; great grandchildren Dustin and Rebecca Stringer, Joshua and Cody Bix and Brittany Bix, along with many nieces, nephews, friends and other relatives. Ralph enjoyed working on his farm. He could always be found out doing something on the farm or with his livestock. Ralph loved working around cattle and especially sheep. He had sheep all his life and treated them with kindness and respect. If Ralph wasn't doing work on the farm he was enjoying his grandchildren and great grandchildren who could always bring a smile to his face and he could bring a smile to theirs. He spent hours entertaining and being entertained by them. He loved music and telling stories about his childhood and growing up years around the Siam area. Ralph was never too busy to lend a helping hand. He had a great sense of humor, patience, and a zest for the simple things of life, a sunset, a wildflower, a bird. He will be sadly missed by everyone whose lives he touched.
