Ralph Macdonald, 68, passed away peacefully at his home in Golden Valley, Arizona, with his friend Rick by his side on April 25, 2017. He was born on July 28, 1948 in Orange, California to Austin and Edna Macdonald.
After school at Mater Dei and Santa Ana College, Ralph proudly served in the United States Army becoming a Sergeant in only a year and selflessly served his country in the Vietnam War. After his discharge, Ralph worked as a dental technician, stunt man for the movie industry, cowboy, and in construction. But how Ralph spent his free time touched the lives of many. He was a lifetime member of the Pistoleros and Roses, always involved with programs for the kids of Golden Valley; because helping children was his passion. He was an active member of the American Legion and the VFW in Golden Valley. Ralph also loved his horses, hunting, and fishing.
He is survived by his sisters, Mary Ragan and Rae Patterson; and his close friend, Rick Castello.
A private memorial service will be held for Ralph's family. Services were placed in the care of Mohave Memorial Funeral and Cremation Services. Thoughts and condolences can be sent to Ralph's family at
