Ralph Hudson Obituary
A talented woodworker, Ralph found peace and satisfaction in transforming raw materials into beautiful creations. His hands were skilled, and through his craftsmanship, he left a legacy that will be cherished by those who knew him.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Benjamin and Stephanie Hudson; his two brothers, John and James Hudson; and his sister, Opal Clark.
Ralph is survived by his loving wife, Lacey Hudson; his children, Cindy Bennett (Bill) and Vicki Townsend (Abb); his 4 grandchildren, Edward Bennett, Monty Leggett (Ashley), Ty Leggett (Tiffany), and Carrie Pierce (Brad), his 6 great-grandchildren; 4 great-great-grandchildren; and his brother, Eugene Hudson; as well as a host of nieces and nephews, who will carry his memory in their hearts forever. He will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held at a later date at the Hickory Grove Methodist Church to honor Ralph's life and legacy. Details of the services will be announced, and all are welcome to join in remembering Ralph Hudson, a devoted husband and a man of many talents.
