Ronald was a devoted member of Rowland Springs Baptist Church, where his fellowship enriched the lives of many. He proudly served in the U.S. Air Force from 1958 to 1962, and later retired from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers after a long career. His passion for history and talking with others led him to work at the Booth Western Art Museum.

For 19 years, Ronald was the co-owner of M&N Electrical Supply, a business he helped build with dedication and integrity. Beyond his professional accomplishments, Ronald found joy in life’s simple pleasures—camping with family, exploring new places, and tending to his garden with care. He was known for generously sharing the fruits of his labor, offering fresh vegetables to neighbors and his church family as a gesture of kindness and community.
