Ron is a faithful follower of our lord Jesus Christ. He shared his faith with everyone he met. He loved everyone and was always intent on sharing his faith with as many souls as he could. He was a kind and gentle soul because of his walk with Jesus. He was a man so full of love that he didn’t know a stranger and opened his heart to all.
He was also a man of many skills. He started his career at an early age as a paperboy. Then he became a diesel mechanic, carpenter, 669 Sprinkler Fitter, and lastly an RV Transporter. But sharing Jesus was his favorite and best job in all that he did.
He was the “Pops we love”. A son, a brother, a husband, a daddy (Pops), and a grandpa (PawPaw). He is already sorely missed. But now he is with his “beloved”, his momma, his grandchildren, and many friends and family.
A beacon of light to be fondly remembered. His legacy was to share Jesus which he did with love.
2 Timothy 4:7-8
7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.
8 Henceforth, there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
