Clodfelter, Ralph George (24 December 1938 – 7 July 2022) With Flag
Ralph George Clodfelter, 83, passed away in Chandler, AZ, on Thursday, July 7,
2022, after a long illness.
Ralph was born on December 24, 1938, in Blue Island, Illinois to Waldemar
Clodfelter and Kristina (Brzezinski). He has now been set free from the pain he
had endured and is flying high with his loved ones that passed before him.
He is survived by his wife Bonnie of 53 years, 4 children: Wayne Watson (Judy),
Tom Watson, Kathy Dickinson (Daniel), Robin Holmes as well as one sister, Carol
Marie Mashin of Neillsville, WI, 12 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren. He
was preceded in death by one son, Donald.
Upon graduating from Neillsville High School Ralph joined the United States Air
Force where he served for 20 years. After retiring he and Bonnie lived in
Warroad Minnesota, Ripley, Tennessee and finally Chandler, Arizona. During his
lifetime, Ralph owned and operated several businesses including a cargo hauler,
a taxi company and a laundromat.
Ralph loved people and people loved him. He had a quirky sense of humor that
could make anyone smile. He loved his family and spent all of his spare time
with them. Ralph was the king of big breakfasts and ‘Papas ribs’. His peanut
brittle, cinnamon candy and sausage balls were hits of the holiday season. He
will be missed by so many.
In lieu of flowers the family requests that you consider a donation to the
American Cancer Society in Ralph’s memory.
