Announcing the retirement of one of SK Global’s most beloved team members – Ralph Spice.
Ralph has been the voice of our support desk for products running on Microsoft Dynamics SL (eBanking, Project Work Order, Work Order Procurement, and Shop Floor Control) since the early days of Sandler*Kahne Software (SK Global’s predecessor). We get many, many comments from our SL customers that they absolutely love Ralph!
A Little History:
Prior to Rick Sandler and Tim Kahne founding Sandler*Kahne Software (SK) in 1994, Rick & Ralph, both having backgrounds in consulting with manufacturers, collaborated on a few manufacturing engagements. After SK launched Work Order & Project Work Order for SL (then Solomon), the next project on the table was Shop Floor Control w/Capacity Scheduling. Rick asked Ralph to collaborate on the design of the module. Although his initial relationship with SK was as a consultant, he soon became SK’s 3rd employee.
As SK launched the eBanking Suite for Solomon, which was the natural evolution of Tim’s AP Direct Deposit, Ralph quickly mastered that product…and the rest is history.
Over the years, as we attended SL events, we were consistently asked “where’s Ralph?” They wanted to put a face to his name and voice. We always kidded Ralph that he was like Mr. Wilson on Tool Time (starring Tim Allen)…the neighbor we always heard but never saw!…
When Sandler*Kahne Software evolved into SK Global Software (SKG) on January 1, 2015, Ralph continued to support our SL customers. As Microsoft Dynamic F&O fueled the expansion of SKG, our SL customer base continued to grow. Ralph single-handedly kept up with the support of our SL customers.
Ralph – thank you for all your contributions over the years. We wish you all good things in your retirement years!

Hi Ralph, Good Luck to you in Retirement. I’m sure you will enjoy spending more time with your family. Thank you for all your help. You will be greatly missed. I always appreciated your quick responses to my eBanking problems.
Ralph – I never had the pleasure of directly working with you, but I have to thank you for all the years of amazing support. You always helped my fabulous co-worker, Lucille Pileggi resolve anything our clients could come up with and for that I’m grateful to you. I wish you a wonderful retirement!

Ralph! I can’t believe you’re leaving me! ;)
All kidding aside, it has been my extreme pleasure to work with you over the years. You have always been able the calm to all my storms. Support work is stressful at times but I knew when it came to needing help with eBanking clients I didn’t have to worry because I always had you in my back pocket. Cheers to your retirement. May it be long and full of joy!
I cannot believe you are beating me to retirement Ralph! I am so jealous. It has been a pleasure working with you over the years. You were always there with the right answer and a most pleasant attitude making eBanking issues a pleasure to solve when working with you. You will be greatly missed. Enjoy that retirement.
Hi Ralph, I am so very happy for you that now you get to spend much more time with your beautiful family. But, I am so sad for us. I have had the pleasure of knowing you for only one year! I will miss our chats. Thank you for your kindness and patience each time we spoke. You are one of a kind and will be missed!! All the best to you and your family. Happy Retirement.
Ralph,

You will be missed and I thank you for your help over the years.
Take care!
Congratulation Ralph, and well deserved I’m sure. Thank you so much for all the help over the years, you’ve been an oracle a few times. All best wished you.
Congratulations Ralph on your retirement. It has been a pleasure to work with you over the past ….. WOW 20 years at least. I knew I could always count on you to translate my “donna speak” into the real problem and take care of any issue. You will be missed (and envied) as you move on to your next adventure! Congratulations again!
Ralph was always great to jump in and help whenever I sent in a request. He is very knowledgeable and polite. Going to miss having him as an eBanking reference. Enjoy retirement! You will be greatly missed.
Wow, that is a huge bummer for me, but fantastic news for Ralph, well deserved! Ralph, it’s been a great pleasure working with you – you really know your stuff. Thanks for all the help, and enjoy retirement (can I join you?)
Ralph has been a key contact with SK Global in working with the eBanking and Work Order Procurement modules that we use at HMT. He’s always been responsive and a pleasure to work with.
@Ralph — all the best in retirement! Enjoy!
Best wishes,
Jim
