Ron passed away peacefully on March 23, 2022. Ron is survived by his wife, Judy; daughter, Dana Hafner (Florian); grand-children, Maximillian Hafner and Sebastian Hafner; stepson, Chris Locke (Brandi) and his children, Michael Locke and Morgan Locke.
Ron accomplished many things over his lifetime. He was a great ice hockey player, a Vietnam Veteran, a small plane pilot and a successful businessman.
Ron loved people and they loved him. He was a great friend, neighbor, husband, father, and grandpa.
He had a special place in his heart for many of his work associates and customers, old school buddies, cousins, and nieces.
The family would like to thank everyone who called, cared, and prayed during this time.
A special thanks to Dr. Lejla Hadzikadic-Gusic for her expertise and friendship. Also would like to thank the ICU unit at Atrium Main for saving his life so we had a little more time to spend with him.
If you wish to make a donation on his behalf, Ron thought St. Jude's was a good organization.
