Ralph Edison

Sharonville

Ralph Edison, born on May 3, 1965, in Cincinnati, Ohio to Mr. and Mrs. Robert and Nancy Edison, who passed away before him. Ralph left this world peacefully at home on May 26, 2025. He was a remarkable soul whose legacy will be forever etched in the hearts of those fortunate enough to know him. A dedicated professional for many years at Worldwide Equipment, Ralph was admired not only for his commitment to his career but also for the unwavering kindness and compassion he extended to everyone around him.

Ralph is remembered as a man with a heart of gold. His compassion was not limited to humans; he had a deep love for all living things. He found immense joy in feeding and caring for wildlife that visited his yard, and he took great pride in nurturing his environment through yard work. Those who shared their lives with him often praised what a good man he was, someone who would gladly give the shirt off his back to help another in need.

His home was filled with the melodies of music that he cherished, and he loved to play his stereo on high, sharing the sounds that brightened his spirit. Ralph's zest for life resonated in every interaction, and he forged many lasting connections through his genuine warmth and sincerity.

Left to mourn the loss of this extraordinary man is his beloved soul mate, Sheila Edgell, with whom he shared 29 years of love and companionship. The memories they created together will no doubt provide comfort during this difficult time. Ralph is also survived by many siblings, nieces, nephews, co-workers, and friends who will continue to carry his spirit within them. Each of their lives was undoubtedly touched by Ralph’s sheer goodness and the kindness he embodied throughout his journey.

Ralph Edison may no longer walk among us, but his love for people, animals, and nature will forever resonate in the stories shared by those who knew him. The wildlife he cherished will surely miss the gentle soul who took the time to care for them, just as we all will miss the laughter and light he brought into our lives.
