Obituary of Ralph E. Mumblow

BOLTON LANDING:  Ralph E. Mumblow, 59 years old of Bolton Landing, NY, passed away peacefully on April 4, 2025 at Glens Falls Hospital after a long illness.

Ralph was born on June 25, 1965, to the late George Mumblow and Louise (McKinstry) Smith in Adirondack, NY. He grew up in the Adirondacks and, while still in high school, Ralph chose to begin working. His career started at Bonnie View Resort as a groundsman, and he later worked at the Sagamore Resort and F.R. Smith & Sons Marina as a small engine mechanic. Ralph eventually retired from the Bolton Landing Department of Parks and Recreation. In 1987, Ralph met the love of his life, Ruth E. Mumblow (Rozell), at the Bonnie View Resort. The two were married later that year, on September 19, 1987.

Outside of work, Ralph could often be found outdoors, fishing—even during the winter months. He had a passion for spending time in his garage, welding and tinkering with anything that had a small engine.

Ralph’s memory will be cherished by his devoted wife, Ruth Mumblow; daughters Xanath (Michael) Moon and Angelica Mumblow, along with her partner, Wade Bisonette; grandchildren Austin Cooper and Michael Moon Jr.; uncles Lou (Joanne) Burgess and Steve Burgess; his beloved four-legged companions, cats Dexter and Emma and numerous friends.

“Rest in Peace, we love you and miss you.”
