Ron was born in Brampton and grew up on the farm in Bolton. He went to Brampton High School and attended Ryerson.
He spent many years in purchasing. He finished his working years buying and helping to build Northern Coatings.
After retiring, Ron moved to Mount Forest where he became very active in the seniors organizations.
He gained many new friends in the four years he lived there. He kept those relationships until the end.
In recent years, Ron moved to Orangeville so he could be closer to his daughter Maryann, her husband Patrick and their three children.
He will be sadly missed by his grandchildren, Aven, Jada, Will and Mylo.
They all carry special memories of him. Ron leaves many different family members, and friends behind. He was ultimately happy and his sense of humour and comedic timing was untouchable. He will never be forgotten.
Arrangements with Dods & McNair Funeral Home, Orangeville.
Memorial donations to the Kidney Foundation would be appreciated by the family.
