Ralston died in his sleep after a few weeks' indisposition, though not severe enough to affect his work schedule until the last week. His remains were buried at the Toowong Cemetery.
The estate map of the Monte Video Estate in Windsor, Brisbane was advertised for sale in June 1929 and included the phrase - "For many years known as the residence and grounds of the late W. V. Ralston."
