Mary Banach & The Rev. Dr. Richard Banach
52nd wedding anniversary, January 10, 2011

Several students have asked who is the man that Ramtha talks to on his walks through the Great Hall at several recent events. Dr. Richard Banach has been studying with Ramtha since 1983 along with his wife of 52 years, Mary, who unexpectedly passed six months ago. Richard resides in Rainier, WA, and is a retired Methodist minister from the greater New Jersey area.

For 20 years, Dr. Banach was one of six associate editors of The United Methodist Relay: Official Voice of The Greater New Jersey Area (1978 Circulation: 23,000 clergy and laity leaders in 600 churches) and intertwined what he learned from Ramtha in his poems and publications.
