Ron was born in Flint on November 20, 1943, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Earl Joseph and Leota (Murray) Pease. Ron was raised in Mt. Morris and educated locally through the Mt. Morris school district. Ron met the love of his life, Sandra Seeback, at the big rock while attending school in Mt. Morris. The two dated, fell in love, and were united in marriage on January 16, 1965, in Mt. Morris. Ron worked in his dad's business as a masonry bricklayer for many years. He would then expand his skills and work as a residential and commercial painter for Genesee Paint, retiring in 1995, with over 35 years of service. Ron was a long-time member of North Flushing Baptist Church, helping to build the original church on Clio Road. Ron was a devoted husband, dad, and grandpa. He enjoyed the outdoors, watching drag races at Lapeer Dragway, hunting, mowing grass, going up north camping, shopping at Harbor Freight, and hanging out at the Mt. Morris McDonald's, eating vanilla ice cream cones and drinking coffee.
