Ralph E. Webb, born on April 23, 1950, in Jeffersonville, Indiana, passed away peacefully on September 25, 2025, in Louisville, Kentucky, surrounded by his loved ones. His passing marks the end of a remarkable life dedicated to service, family, and the joys of nature.

With over 50 years of volunteer service between the Charlestown and New Washington Fire Departments, Ralph was a steadfast presence in his community. His dedication to helping others was evident not only in his firefighting but also in his diverse work history. He retired from International Harvester and served as a welder at Jeff Boat. Additionally, Ralph drove trucks for Nutrien AG Solutions and worked as a farmer raising swine and tobacco. In his later years, he found fulfillment as a forklift operator at Niagara Bottling.

Ralph's spirit thrived outdoors. He cherished being outside, often accompanied by his beloved dogs. He also had a passion for restoring tractors and enjoyed the camaraderie found at tractor shows. Camping and gardening were among the many hobbies that brought him joy throughout his life.

He leaves behind a loving family, including his longtime companion, Twila Lutz; sister, Sharon Madison, and her husband, Joe; daughter, Donna Collins, and her husband, David; sons, Doug Boldt and his wife, Brandi; Tony Webb and his wife, Amber; Billy Webb and his wife, Susan; and daughter, Crystal Webb, and her boyfriend, Jerry. Ralph also took great pride in his grandchildren: Nicole Gorman, Sammy Gorman, Katelyn Gorman, Miranda Gorman, Zachery Boldt, Anastasia Boldt, Nash Webb, Shelby Webb, Lane Webb, Grayson Webb, Keegan Webb, Reagan Webb, and Sammi Vallone. He was also a cherished great-grandfather to Asher Abbott, Zander Abbott, Gwynevere Diaz, Scarlett Lewis, and David Lewis.

Ralph is preceded in death by his parents, John and Faye Webb, whose spirits undoubtedly welcomed him.

Visitation will be held at Grayson Funeral Home in Charlestown, Indiana, on Tuesday, September 30, 2025, from 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM, and again on Wednesday from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM, with the funeral service scheduled for 11:00 AM in the funeral home chapel. Burial will follow at Hibernia Cemetery. The family invites all who knew Ralph to come share in remembrance and honor of a life well-lived.
