Howard Stern Remembers Ralph Cirella

[@neilvanegas6559]

Hard to believe Ralph is gone. His contributions to the Stern Show were incredible. Utterly in shock.

I was listening today. The tribute is poignantly fitting. It brought me back to so many great moments of the show. I'll be listening all week for more memorable moments. To the entire Howard Stern and Ralph Cirella family, the dedicated listeners feel for you and are so sorry. Rest in Peace, Raplh.

[@PresbianTier]

i definitely had a soft spot for Howard when this happened. during that time last year, i had just recently lost a friend of mine and we had known each other for 14 years. empathy works wonders

[@nateman79]

I remember everyone HATING ralph for years, but his call ins with Eric the ****** and John the stutterer were LEGENDARY… some of the best moments of the show. Him and zolar on the phone arguing with john the stutterer might be the funniest moment in show history… this is the time to share your favorite good times!

[@Kristine_202]

I'm an atheist, but I love the idea that there's an afterlife and Eric has just been chilling in heaven for all these years and suddenly Ralph shows up and says, "Hey now!" Maybe they're continuing their duel in heaven. LOL RIP to the berry-faced jackass

My biggest takeaway from listening for 25 years was that Ralph had genuine affection for all of the regular characters on the Show. Sure, he was one of the biggest ball-breakers of the bunch, but there was a subtle tenderness to his approach that was endearing and admirable. I always imagined him to be the kind of person I could be friends with, and I totally understand Howard's sense of loss. RIP Ralph! Hope you're critiquing all the white robes up there! BYE FOR NOW!
