Ron was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend. He was known for his genuine passion for serving and protecting others. He worked for Alcoa for many years and spent the majority of his life in security work, a profession he truly loved. Ron took great pride in his work and found purpose in helping keep others safe.
His faith was an important part of his life. For many years, Ron faithfully served with Royal Rangers through his church, mentoring young boys and helping shape their character through faith, encouragement, and leadership.

He also leaves behind many extended family members, friends, former coworkers, players, and those whose lives were touched by his kindness and friendship.
While our hearts are broken by his loss, we find comfort in knowing that he lives on through the family he loved and the many lives he impacted throughout his years. We will remember his devotion to family, his willingness to help others, and his love of faith and community.
On a day dedicated to fathers, we said goodbye to ours as he was welcomed into the eternal arms of our Heavenly Father.
