Ralph T. Dosher's Obituary
DOSHER, JR., RALPH T. died June 21, 2013. He was born September 10, 1924 in Dallas, TX. He graduated from Woodrow Wilson High School and from SMU with a degree in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering. He served in the U.S. Navy as Lt. Jr. Grade.

Their work over several years became the model statewide and part of the core of “No Children Left Behind.” Ralph was a Life Deacon at Park Cities Baptist Church. He is survived by his wife of 65 years, Anna; daughters, Diane Hale and Carol Betten and husband, Doug Betten; six grandchildren and three great grandchildren and a sister, Mary Catherine Hamrick.
