Ron had a 25-year career as a chemical technician at Carling Brewery.  He 
continued his career at Dow Chemical until he retired.  He had many cherished 
friends from both workplaces.  In his spare time, Ron enjoyed gardening, wood 
working, polka dancing, going to Florida each winter, and most of all, spending 
time with family and friends.  Ron was an early and active member of Blessed 
Trinity where he served as religious education teacher, building campaign 
worker, and minister to the homebound.  Ron proudly served in the US Army
