Thanks to John D. for being so eloquent about Ralph Shattuck. I think what you said was the most honest and sincere and truthful statement I have ever heard about associating with Ralph.
I never personally purchased anything from Ralph, but met him on several occasions at gun shows. (I Just never had any money to buy anything because of family related expenses, but that's another story...).
On every occasion that I met him, as described by others, he was gracious, gentlemanly, and courteous to a fault. Whatever else he may have been to other people, he was a friend and I shall remember him fondly... Rest in peace Ralph.
