I googled it because I was curious.  Being in a neighboring state, I see a lot of their cards.

He was born in 1850 and his last name was actually "Ralphs".

He moved to Cali as a child in a goddamn prairie schooner, and worked as a bricklayer until he lost an arm and found work as a grocery clerk.  Somehow, him and his brother bought their own store and made it big.  His brother bought him out later on.

On a weekend trip he tried to one-arm his wife up onto a boulder, which came loose and crushed his leg, leading to his death.

Later on, his company was a pioneer in the warehouse/grocery sort of thing until Kroger consumed it in the Grocery Wars of the 1990's.

 Well in those days all they had was a prairie schooner. What do you expect them to use a sports car? Sometimes I wish we all had prairie schooner's.

The headline was enough.  No, you should use a made-up identity, don't bring your phone near the store and pay cash.  Start your own market across the street to help your community.
