Ron Louallen

He lived larger than life, was ornery, and mischievous. He was a notorious storyteller; often repeating the same stories over and over again. He enjoyed drinking whiskey, dancing like a fool, and doting on his dog Dusty "Hog Dog". He also loved spending time with family and friends. He lovingly referred to family members as "brat".

He was a retired truck driver, enjoyed riding his Harley, and driving his Mustang Cobra. He wintered in Texas, and returned each year to his home in Ohio.
