Ronald enjoyed over 40 decades serving in the food industry. A long-term employee of Shoney’s followed by Plantation Inn, winning employee of month more than a handful of times. Everyone who knew Ron knows he loved food, but not for the obvious reason, Ron loved laughing, spending quality time, fellowship with family and friends.
Ron loved to landscape, turning the most barren patch of dirt into a beautiful plot of land. Ron wasn’t afraid of hard work and would often forget to take a break, so as long as he had music playing and an ice cold glass of rootbeer. Before Ron passed away he made sure he rededicated his life to Jesus and found Salvation through Grace.
Ron’s last few moments were surrounded by his family, he requested Bob Seger’s “Night Moves” before he closed his eyes for the last time holding hands with his loved ones.
A Celebration of Life service will be on June 29, 2024 at 1:00 PM at First Presbyterian Church of Inverness, 206 Washington Ave., Inverness, FL. Pastor Lou Ellen Hartley will officiate.
