In September 2015, while completing a bicycle fundraiser for Peel Memorial Hospital, Ralf Jarchow tragically passed away in British Columbia. Ralf was a founding partner of Prouse, Dash & Crouch, LLP, long time member of the PLA and other local organizations as well as a Peel resident - his involvement, contributions and support to community were deep and wide spread.

The Ralf Jarchow Community Service Award has been established by the Peel Law Association in recognition of the outstanding contributions and support Ralf devoted toward many organizations in the Peel community.

As a further recognition and celebration of how Ralf lived his personal and professional lives, the PLA has created this award in order to distinguish a PLA Member’s work as a volunteer and/or their service to the Peel community. It is the PLA Board’s intention to formally recognize recipients at the Annual Members' Meeting dinners.
