Poetic Obituaries: Ralph [Esau] loved the simple things

in life, too, especially music. He was part of the Truro Jam Band for about 20 years and participated in other community music groups.

"He had a great gift for making songs or poems . . . and played at the veterans' wing at the Colchester Regional Hospital and seniors homes," to name only a few of his musical endeavours.
