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.
