Ralph Leroy Easter, age 72, of Siletz, Oregon, passed away on January 8, 2026. He was born on August 13, 1953, in Toledo, Oregon.

Ralph lived a life rooted in the outdoors and family. He loved logging, hunting, fishing, and camping, and found his greatest joy spending time with those he loved. An avid fan of all sports, Ralph was known for cheering on every kid whether related to him or not always offering encouragement and support from the sidelines.

Ralph was a devoted family man and a caring friend. He had a big heart and was always willing to help when someone was in need, open volunteering himself or even a family member to lend a hand. His generosity and humor left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him.

He is survived by his son and daughter, six grandchildren, and one great-grandson, along with numerous nieces, cousins, and a community full of adopted family and friends who will miss him dearly. Ralph’s kindness, loyalty, and love for others will be remembered always.
