So many deserved encomiums have been heaped on Ralph Moore over the years that anything I say here would seem feeble and redundant by comparison. Perhaps more than for all of the wonderful roses he introduced, Ralph will be remembered for the many hybridizers and rosarians of all stripes he mentored and encouraged. May we all live as productive and rewarding lives as did Ralph Moore.
