Honoring and Remembering Ralph Bencivengo

Please help us honor and pay tribute to an exceptional human being, Ralph Bencivengo. Beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, coach and a great friend to many. Ralph, was a true family man, a one-of-a-kind community member and an exceptional tennis coach.

Ralph was a dedicated and much-loved member of the Mercer County tennis community. His enthusiasm for the sport shined through every practice, match, and tournament. His impact extended far beyond the tennis courts. Ralph's positive energy and compassionate spirit enriched all of our lives.

Ralph's generosity, dedication, and love for his family and community will be profoundly missed by all who knew him. We are devastated by his passing and want to honor his memory.

This GoFundMe campaign will support a memorial in his honor by planting a beautiful red maple tree at Mercer County Park overlooking the tennis courts, where he spent countless hours coaching for many years. We will place a stone in front of the tree with a plaque honoring Ralph's memory.

The rest of the contributions will be donated to the Lewy Body Dementia Association per the request of his family so we can get closer to preventing and curing this cruel disease that affected Ralph (and so many others) in the last few years of his life. Your contributions will continue the legacy of kindness and support that Ralph embodied.

Every donation, no matter the size, will be a step towards honoring Ralph's memory and finding a cure to this horrible illness. Please share this campaign with anyone who knew Ralph or who might wish to contribute to this cause.

Let's come together to celebrate the life of someone who meant so much to so many at the Mercer County Tennis community and beyond.

If you can’t make a donation, please consider sharing this campaign with your friends, family, and networks.

WE LOVE YOU & FOREVER MISS YOU, RALPHIE!!!

Thank you for your love, support, and generosity.

With gratitude,

Barbara Pal & Coach Marc Vecchiola
