Ronnie Edward Langley, “Scooter” of Gaston County, age 38, passed away peacefully, on October 18, 2021 with his wife by his side after a long battle with cancer. Ronnie was born in Brunswick County, North Carolina on April 23, 1983.
Ronnie graduated in 2001 from North Gaston High School and then earned an Associate’s Degree in Automotive Mechanics from Gaston College. He owned “Keep It Movin Mobile Mechanics” where he carried on his love and passion of auto mechanics. Ronnie worked hard, not only for his company, but also for his in-laws doing construction at MAK Floor Images. Ronnie’s passion with auto mechanics led him to meet and help so many people in the community.
His focus was always his love for his family. All his dreams came true in October 2016 when he married his “everything”, his wife Nichole Cantu-Kisby. She was the absolute love of his life along with their children Khloye, Ayden, Skyler and Hannah.
Throughout his life, he was loved by many. He is survived by his wife, Nichole; children, Khloye, Ayden, Skyler, Hannah and Savannah; baby brother, Steve Odom; his aunts, Penny Langley, Suzy, Tammy, Annette Nixon whom he loved dearly. His aunts helped raise him into the man he is today. His mother Donna Kay Langley passed away during his childhood along with his grandparents, who all lost their battle with cancer. He is also survived by his uncle, Norris Lamb; father and mother-in-law, Ricky and Molly Kisby; sister-in-law’s, Alyssa Kisby Meadows and husband Gary and Dr. Cassandra Kisby-Shadrin and husband Ilia.
Loving words from his wife Nichole: Ronnie’s compassion made him a “Once in a Lifetime Man”. You know once in a lifetime if you are truly lucky you meet someone whose presence ignites a burning fire within you. Someone whose warm smile and sensitive nature captures your heart and you know in an instant that the two of you were meant to be together. You are my once in a lifetime. I was blessed to have you, you were my everything and so much more. I will spend forever loving you! You will be missed by so many lives you have touched and I will never be the same until we are in each other’s arms again.
