Ronald enjoyed hunting, fishing, camping, golfing, spending time with family, bowling, watching John Wayne movies, and painting ceramics with his granddaughter. Ronald loved to cook, especially mostaccioli, while listening to his favorite classic country. Ronald loved his domestic pets as well. He had a dog that preceded him in death that went by "Dukie". Two weeks before Ronald passed; he adopted a kitten named "Moonie" who is now in the care of his daughter Jennifer.
