It is with heartbreak that we announce that the Dayton theatre community has lost an elder statesman, our beloved Ralph Dennler, who passed away Saturday evening.
We especially feel the loss here at the Guild, where Ralph dedicated more than four decades as an actor, director, and long-standing board member who worked tirelessly and passionately to fulfill the Guild mission of “Good Theatre Done Well.”
Goodbye Dear Ralph, we miss you already.

Ralph will remain an inspiration to me in so many ways. He loved his family and nature. He was authentic. I’ve known him since I was a child, but truly learned to appreciate him as our lives continued to weave together through the years. Bless his soul and his family’s hearts.
