Robin Lynn Ralston, 81, passed away on Thursday, May 7, 2026, at Avita Health System – Ontario Hospital.
Robin was born on March 1, 1945, in Martins Ferry, Ohio, to Robert and Eleanor (Hall) Ralston. She was their only child and was dearly loved.
A 1963 graduate of Madison High School, Robin went on to build a strong work ethic and dedicated more than 20 years of service to Therm-O-Disc, where she was a valued employee and friend to many.
Robin embraced life with enthusiasm and a wonderful sense of adventure. She loved spending time on the golf course and was an avid sports fan who faithfully cheered for the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Pittsburgh Penguins. Never one to shy away from trying something new, Robin attended bartending school and worked at Snow Trails Ski Resort, using her bartending earnings to help fund memorable vacations and special trips.
Robin will be remembered for her independence, hard work, and zest for life. She found joy in simple pleasures, treasured time spent traveling, and enjoyed every opportunity to make lasting memories.
She is survived by her friends, Diana Hostetler, Michelle Prince, Michael and Tawni Klupp, Cierra and Jodi Gray, Cheyanne Prince, Cody Prosser, and Meghan and John Sablan; and her adopted grandkids who called her “Grandma Robin”, Elenor, Lyla, Emma, Mia, Titan, Tucker, Brantlee, and Carson.
She was preceded in death by her father, Robert Isreal Ralston; her mother, Eleanor Elizabeth (Hall) Ralston; and grandparents, Leo Lorain and Enid Dale (Shepherd) Ralston and Charles Paulus and Helen (Beck) Hall.
