Storm Lake Buena Vista Vidette - February 17, 1910 - Ralph Leo Joray was the 3rd son of Mr and Mrs Amiel Joray. He was born in Storm Lake Sept 19, 1891 and has always been at home here. He was a pupil in the Storm Lake schools and attended school until last spring.

A little over a year ago he suffered from typhoid fever which left him in a weakened condition and was followed by tuberculosis. He bore his sickness with a patient spirit as he felt that all was right between him and the Lord. At the closing of his life he said " I am going to sleep." He lead a clean life and died a peaceful death.

He leaves his father, mother, and three brothers: Amil F, Guy A, and Otis Sterling.

He died Friday morning at 7 o'clock and funeral services were conducted in the Methodist Episcopal church Saturday. The body was laid to rest in the Storm Lake cemetery.
