Ron was born November 14th, 1970 in Greeley, CO. He graduated from University High School in 1989. He earned his degree in Auto Body Repair from AIMS Community College in Greeley and ran his own body shop, Auto Restorations, for over 25 years.
Ron was a bright, kind man who loved his wife and kids wholly. He was a quiet man, never making big waves. He was a whiz with cars, loved racing, and helped those around him however he could without any want in return. He supported his children in their hobbies (soccer, swimming, roller derby, RC car racing, color guard) completely and was always one of their biggest fans. Over the last few years, he struggled with dementia, a horrific disease that robbed him and his family of a life fulfilled. He will be remembered fondly by many.
Ron is survived by his wife Diane; two children Meagan and Cyrus; father Orlan; siblings Deb, Ray, John, and Trish; niblings Tami, Sam, Benny, Brandon, Luke, Zane, Emma, Avalon, and Malakai; and too many in-laws to name them all.
A Celebration of Life will be held at Stoddard Funeral Home, 3205 West 28th Street, Greeley CO on Friday June 19th at 4:00pm. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation in Ron’s name to your local Dementia charity.
