Ralph Frank Marsh

October 15, 1929 - October 22, 2017

Ralph Frank Marsh passed away peacefully on October 22, 2017 one week after his 88th birthday. He was born in New York City on October 15, 1929 to Sandor Marsh and Pauline Kaffeman. The family eventually moved to Montreal, Canada. Ralph served in the Korean War with the 7th Infantry Division Special Services branch. He received the United Nations Service medal, the Combat Infantry badge, the Korean Service medal and the Bronze Star medal. After the army, Ralph enjoyed a long and successful career as a musician and orchestra leader in Montreal and played with such greats as Englebert Humperdinck, Tony Bennett, Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich. In the 1980’s, he relocated to sunny South Florida where he remained active in the music and restaurant industry and fostered and enjoyed many valued friendships. Ralph lived by one important credo, “If a task is once begun, never leave it till it’s done, be the labor great or small, do it well or not at all.” His memory will be cherished by his daughters Juliette Rohr and Sandra Lisa Marsh; son-in-laws Frank Rohr and Sal Albano; grandchildren Michael, Cassandra and Domenic; his long-time companion Teresa Joos; his faithful dog Gizmo and all his extended family. He was predeceased by his parents, his brother Stanley Marsh, his nephew Stephen Marsh and his ex-wife Teresa Giroux Marsh. We extend our deepest appreciation to all the doctors and nurses at the VA Hospital in West Palm Beach. Memorial donations can be made to the VA Hospital at 7305 N Military Trail, Riviera Beach, FL 33410. Funeral services will be private.
