The Bakersfield Californian 
Ronald Charles VandeWeg

Services: Sat., April, 30, 1:00 p.m. 

We will celebrate the life of Ronald VandeWeg on Saturday, April 30, 2005, 
1:00 p.m., at Hooper and Weaver Chapel, in Nevada City, California. Ron passed 
away on Sunday, April 24th after a long battle with cancer.

Ron was born June 29, 1940, in Torrance, California. He lived in the Los 
Angeles area during his childhood and adolescence and graduated from Burbank 
High School in 1959. After high school, Ron joined the Army and was a member 
of the Signal Corps and the Green Berets. Once Ron was through jumping out of 
airplanes for the Army, he entered Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and graduated with 
a degree in Agricultural Science. Soon afterwards he found himself married 
with two children and teaching Ag. Mechanics and Drafting at Arvin High 
School. After a long tenure at AHS, Ron moved on to teach at Kern Valley High 
School in Lake Isabella. He retired in 2001.

Ron was particularly well-known for his booming voice and larger-than-life 
personality. He loved to travel and explore the outdoors, but also enjoyed 
settling down in his favorite chair every evening for a good smoke and a bad 
movie. His sense of humor was infectious, and his opinions were always honest 
and wise. His unmistakable charisma has left an impression on so many; while 
he is physically no longer with us, he will never truly be gone.

Ron's legacy continues with his wife, Elizabeth; son, Derek; and daughter, 
Vanessa. We wish to thank all who have offered their support and prayers.
