Ralph Hord Obituary
We are sad to announce that, on January 20, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Ralph Hord of Shelby, North Carolina. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
Though Ralph may no longer walk beside us, his memory will forever be enshrined in the fabric of the lives of those Ralph touched, a beacon of light guiding us through the darkness. In his absence, his spirit lives on — a gentle whisper in the breeze, a ray of sunlight on a cloudy day, a reminder that love knows no boundaries.
He was predeceased by: his parents, Forrest Richard Hord and Ellen Turner Hord; his brother Harold Hord; and his son-in-law David McAllister. He is survived by: his wife Jimmie Brown Hord; his daughters, Christel Gilbert (Rickey Gilbert) and Catherine McAllister; his grandson Colton; his daughter Rebecca Wyrick (Jeff Wyrick); and his grandchild Jordan.
