Ralph Grimes came on board in April 2019.
He and his wife Dede met in 1985 as “childhood sweethearts” and married in 1988. They have three amazing children, and three wonderful grandsons, and two granddaughters! They also have two awesome son-in-laws.
Ralph has a deep entrepreneurial spirit that was realized when he was only 19 years old, and he opened his first Mr. Jim's Pizza franchise. After opening/operating four locations, Ralph and Dede sold them.
Then in 1995, they opened and operated a successful carpet cleaning business for 16 years that was sold in 2011.
Ralph has been in the Financial Services industry for 18 years. Initially he worked part-time while working toward getting his licenses and training and transitioned to full-time after selling his carpet cleaning business. Ralph enjoys working with families with their life insurance and investments needs.
Ralph co-teaches a men's class at church, is a member of the Mansfield Sunrise Rotary Club, and has served in both Mansfield and Kennedale Chamber of Commerce Ambassador programs and is a past board member of the Kennedale Economic Development Corporation.
Ralph and Dede love to take cruises with their family, spend the weekends hanging out by the pool, and telling the grandkids “Yes” all the time!
