Ron graduated from Celina Senior High School in 1978. He had a passion for football and later coached little league for his sons. Ron attended the Ohio State University Highway Patrol Academy and was an auxiliary policeman for seven years in Celina. Ron was presently working for Francis Furniture in Sidney. He spent 35 years with them and proved his worth by being their top salesman for the duration. He will be remembered for his gentleness and sense of humor. He was a wonderful man of God and always a peacemaker. We lost him too soon, but we know he is rejoicing in Heaven.
