Ronin had a deep love for the outdoors and spent as much of his time as possible surrounded by nature. Whether carving fresh trails on his snowboard, heading out for a hunting trip, or casting a line into quiet waters, he found joy and peace in the world around him. Hiking mountain paths, making smores, watching wildlife, or practicing his skills in archery and target shooting, he embraced adventure with enthusiasm. In quieter moments, Ronin could be found whittling wood, creating simple works with his hands that reflected his patience and thoughtfulness.

Known for his goofy sense of humor and fun-loving spirit, Ronin brought light and laughter wherever he went. His adventurous nature was matched only by his kindness. He lived fully, loved deeply, and will be remembered for the joy he brought to every person and place he touched.

Our love will always run deeply for Ronin. The loss of our son has immensely affected all of us. Our sorrow is never ending, and our hearts will always have an empty space. Forever fourteen in our hearts.

A Celebration of Ronin’s Life will be held at a later date.
