Ralph was born in Hamilton, Ohio to Virginia (nee McCoy) and Leonard Young on March 26, 1949. He was raised in the Middletown area and went on to marry Patricia Rader on December 27, 1980. He served his country in service of the United States Army, then worked as a local farmer and later for Henny Penny, where he retired from after many years of faithful service. He and Patty enjoyed traveling, especially to Amish Country. In his spare time he liked to paint, collect tractors, and spend time in his garden.
He's the beloved husband of Patricia Young; cherished father of Nettie (Mike) Crews and Steve Young; dear brother of Leon (Ruby) Young and Doris Ratliff; and loving grandfather of Mylan, Michael and Mason. He's preceded in death by his parents, Virginia and Leonard, and his siblings Robert Young, Cecil Young, Darlene Newton, Mary Young and Joe Young.
