TEDESCO, Ralph. August 5, 1924 - October 23, 2014. It is with profound sadness that the family of Ralph Tedesco announces his passing, at the age of 90.

He will be forever missed by his daughter Sharon, granddaughter Michelle (Dustin), grandson Michael and adoring great grandchildren, London and Cruz. Ralph and Peggy鈥檚 work ethic made it possible for them to have many successful ventures in the hotel business. They started with the Leland hotel in Nakusp, followed by the Skeena in Terrace before finally settling in 91原创 with the ownership of the 91原创 hotel. Ralph was a consummate professional whose passion for business and gentle nature made him a likeable and very well respected employer. Ralph was a car enthusiast and aviation buff. He owned many immpeccably kept Cadillacs over the years and logged many miles in his Cessna from the 91原创 airport. Above all else, Ralph loved his family. To honor his life and in lieu of flowers, please donate to the Salvation Army in Grand Forks鈥� without them Ralph and his brother and sisters would not have survived.
