Ralph Emerson Yerian, 87, went home to be with the Lord on December 11, 2021. He is now reunited with those who preceded him: his loving wife Rosalie of 67 years, his parents, brother Forest, and sons Kevin (Marty) and Scott.
Ralph loved the Lord and shared that love with all who knew him. He performed service work for over 40 years between the Clinton and Doylestown Churches of the Nazarene. Many of those years were spent leading the worship team and bringing people to the Lord.
Ralph loved gardening, wood work/carving, animals and driving his golf cart. He loved his family and friends most of all. Ralph was kind, generous, and always willing to help his family. His definition of family was broad, including both those related by blood and those who became family by choice. He was loved by all who knew him and will be dearly missed.
Ralph is survived by his three sons Lane (Lisa), Keith (Young), and Dirk (Florence), daughter in law Connie Yerian, as well as 21 grandchildren, 36 great-grandchildren, and 1 great-great-grandchild.
Services will be held at Clinton Church of the Nazarene on December 16th, 2021 at 1 pm. All who would like to attend are welcome. Memorial donations may be made in Ralph Yerian's name to the Clinton Church of the Nazarene, 2850 Hickory St., Clinton, Ohio 44216.
Care of Ralph was entrusted to Carlson Funeral Homes & Cremation Services 3477 Medina Rd, Medina, Ohio 44256.
