Born into the Laughlin and Basso/Uliana pioneer families, Ralph lived his entire life in his beloved Livermore.
Many happy moments were spent at Granny Laughlinâs ranch at the end of Croak Road. He especially enjoyed Sheep Shearing Saturday, even when his job was at the bottom of the wool sack! He was loved and appreciated by his many aunts and uncles, and they enriched his life in so many ways. While his mother (Sara Laughlin) worked, he was raised by his loving Gram Uliana. The âoutdoorsâ was the favorite part of all he did; be it hunting game birds, deer, shooting targets and clays, or hiking and riding a Jeep through the Livermore hills on Pine Ridge, the Blackbird, or Rock Creek Ranch.
