May 10, 1954 - March 9, 2018
On Friday, March 9, with his loving wife by his side, Ronald Stanley Bennett took his last breath. He passed away at the age of 63. Ron is predeceased by his brother Daniel, father Gerald, and mother Ruth.
Ron will be sadly missed by his wife Karen, and children, Jade Bennett, Alanna Dyani (Stan), Laura Malanchuk, and Andrew Malanchuk. Ron will also be lovingly remembered by his grandchildren, Isaiah, Hillory, Noah, Kaitlyn, Bella; great-granddaughter Zariah; brother Gerald (Linda), sister Carolynn Getz (Rob), and many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and friends.
Ron was a small business owner in Chilliwack who was well known for his sense of humour and uplifting personality. He took joy in making others laugh. In the nineties he helped run his family’s business, Tile World, then later took it over with his wife Karen. In 2007, Ron and Karen purchased a local window covering franchise, Budget Blinds, and have grown it into a successful family business.
Ron was a family man, and loved to enjoy the outdoors camping on summer weekends with his wife, dog and grandchildren. He and his wife had recently spent two months in Nuevo Vallarta, where he enjoyed long walks on the beach and soaking up the sun.
A Memorial Service will be held for Ron at Woodlawn Mt. Cheam Funeral Home, 45865 Hocking Ave. on Saturday, April 7 at 3:00pm, immediately followed by a Celebration of Life gathering at the Fairfield Scouts Hall (formerly Chilliwack Lions Club Hall) at 47130 Hope River Rd, for all who knew Ron and his Family.
Memorial donations may be made in Ron’s name to the Canadian Liver Foundation.
