Ralph Irvin Daub's Obituary
Ralph Irvin Daub, age 82, of Lewes, DE, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, October 4, 2022. He was born on November 7, 1939, in Avon, PA, the son of the late Robert Kline and Esther Emma (Bernheisel) Daub.
A native of Lebanon County, Pennsylvania, Mr. Daub was a graduate of Northern Lebanon High School. His path led him to a career in banking, assisting families in his community as a mortgage processor, retiring from M & T Bank.
He was a man of many interests. Mr. Daub was a faithful and active member of the Henlopen Grange, Sussex Pomona Grange, and Delaware State Grange. He served in various offices in all three. In 2020, he was honored by the Henlopen Grange Number 20 with a fifty-five-year membership pin. He was a very active member of All Saints Episcopal Church, where he was the Verger, Eucharistic Minister, and frequently volunteered in the church office. He enjoyed traveling and he also loved to cook, making delicious meals for family and friends. His potato salad was especially good, so much so that it was one of the items served in the Grange food booth at the Delaware State Fair! Above all else, Mr. Daub cherished the time spent with those that he held most dear. He was a loving and devoted son, brother, uncle, neighbor, and friend and will be deeply missed by all that knew him.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brothers, Ray Daub (Gladys), Leon Daub (Muriel); his sisters, Grace Fortna (Richard) and Sally Ann Boyer (Larry). He is survived by several very special nieces and nephews.
A funeral service will be held on Wednesday, October 19, 2022, at 11:00AM, at All Saint’s Episcopal Church, 18 Olive Avenue, Rehoboth Beach, DE, where friends may call beginning at 10:00AM. Interment will take place on Thursday, October 20, 2022, at 11:00 AM at the Bunker Hill Evangelical Church Cemetery, 2208 PA-72, Lebanon, PA.
