Ralph Gerard Ste.Croix
January 14, 1932 to February 28, 2025
Ralph Ste.Croix passed away peacefully at Napanee General Hospital on February 28th at the age of 93. Ralph is survived by his loving wife, Shirley of 69 years, and their children Larry (Nancy), Shelley (Fred) and Jamey (Lori) and grandchildren Mike, Robert (Mary), Kayla, Dominique (Cody), Wayne (Melissa), Shannon (Matt) and 10 great-grandchildren and 1 great-great grandchild. Predeceased by, his parents Alfred and Kathleen, brothers James, Harris, Stanford and his son, Kerry.
Ralph was born and raised in Barachois, Quebec. He left there as a young man to pursue work in Ontario. First, in Geraldton, in the logging industry, later he joined the Hoisting Engineers. Then in 1969, he found his call to the Boilermakers in the building of numerous power plants across Ontario and travelled for work in Alberta and the USA, as well.
Ralph was blessed with a long retirement of 31 years, on his farm in Napanee raising horses. He enjoyed hitching his horses, whether it be a wagon, a sleigh or pulling logs out of the bush, was where he was the happiest. Over a few drinks, you could always count on old stories of his life growing up in Barachois, which was dear to him and in endless supply.
Ralph will be remembered and missed by his wife, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, his sisters Tena, Audrey and his many nieces, nephews and cousins.
Arrangements have been entrusted in Wartman Funeral Home, Napanee. A private service will take place at a later date. Donations in memory of Ralph made to the SPCA – Lennox and Addington Animal Care Shelter or to Morningstar Mission would be appreciated by his family.
