Ronald MORGAN Obituary

WEST POINT - Ron was born April 21, 1965. He was a lifelong Tidewater resident and a graduate of Denbigh High School, class of 1983. Ron then attended CNU. He made a career in the painting field. Ron began behind the counter as a paint sales representative, but loving to work with his hands, he was unable to stay confined to a store. Born a natural listener, he was able to relate very easily with anyone. This is why Ron excelled on the job site and in life, building and maintaining relationships. At home, Ron loved spending time with his family more than anything. He loved animals and often adopted pets to provide them a loving home. Ron never viewed distance as an obstacle in the way of spending time with loved ones, especially his children. If anything, distances only motivated him to strengthen the bonds he shared. No distance was too great.
Ron loved sharing stories of his youth. He remained in contact with several close friends from school, throughout his adult years. Ron was a generous, patient, and compassionate man who will be remembered fondly by all he touched with his wonderful sense of humor.
On Nov. 23, 2009, Ron passed away from natural causes. He was currently working for Walnut Hills Painting and part-time at Busch Gardens, in the Fest Hause, with his son, Brandon.
Ron is survived by his wife, Robin Morgan; mother, Masako Morgan; father, Donald Morgan; daughters, Taylor Morgan and Ashley Miller; sons, Brandon Morgan and Nathaniel Miller; his sister, Becky Kitenko and her husband, Franz; his nephews, Ben and Josh Kitenko; his sister, Donna Morgan and her fiancE, Sam Guizar; and a grandson, Alex Miller.
Ron was a wonderful husband, father, brother, uncle, grandfather, and son. We will all miss him greatly.
A service will be held in his honor at 3 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 28, 2009, at Nelsen Funeral Home, 3785 Strawberry Plains Rd., Williamsburg, Va. View and post condolences on our online guestbook at dailypress.com/guestbooks.

I met Ronnie soon after we moved into our Denbigh neighborhood. He and my brother David were the best of friends, all the while being viewed as pesky younger brothers by their older sisters (Donna and me). My childhood is filled with great memories like playing "Kick the Can" with all the neighborhood kids; watching Ronnie, David, and other various "skate rats" build their skateboarding skills on our backyard ramp; enjoying our neighborhood's 4th of July block parties; and visiting the famous Ft. Eustis sandpool as often as we could. On Revelle Drive, the neighborhood families were a tight-knit group. You just don't find that kind of neighborliness anymore, which is what made it so special. How lucky we are to have had those experiences and to have known Ronnie.

I extend deepest sympathies to his family in this great loss.

Ronnie was my first neighborhood friend when we moved to Newport News in 1973. My first memory was his smiling face upside down when he found me hiding in our dog house while playing hide and seek. Ronnie was wearing a three cornered hat and carrying a toy musket. I will treasure memories of playing outside all day, swimming and boating in the neighborhood lake, baseball, biking, skateboarding and just hanging out. I will always remember Ronnie’s kindness, generosity, sense of humor and caring for people and animals. He was a wonderful person with an equally wonderful family, and I’m very sorry that he left us so soon.

I met Ron a few times, at the home of his sister Becky, who is a friend and neighbor of mine. He seemed very nice. My heart goes out to his family and to all who knew and loved him.

I was shocked to hear of Ron's passing. Since I first met him when working on one of his vehicles I have known Ron as someone very patient and understanding, something highly valued in my field. He was always armed with a new joke he wanted to tell the guys and whenever he came in would leave a smile on all of our faces for the rest of the day. On behalf of everyone at Eltham Auto Clinic I pass along deep sympathy to the family and friends who, along with us, will miss Ron immensely.

I'm so sorry to hear of Ronnie's passing. I remember him as Donna's little brother and always heard so many good things about him.
My sincere condolences,

Ron lived his life just as we all should. He took the time to genuinely care about others and tried to make them happy. It has been an honour knowing and working with him. He will always be a fond and inspirational memory. Cyn, Fest Haus

My heartfelt condolences go out to Ron's family. I will always remember his smile, his humor and his garage band(The Cars...Just What I Needed). I think it was the only song they could play all the way through! It was great growing up together on Revelle. Love and prayers,

I went to school with Ron and we both graduated from Denbigh in 1983. Though we did not keep in touch after graduation, I will always remember him for his smile. He was such a sweet person. Rest in peace, Ron. You will always be remembered.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family. I was in total shock to hear that such a nice and funny guy had passed. I remember he was always very courteous when he would come over to meet my father for work. I also remember him dropping off his grandson at the daycare I use to work at. Such a nice man woho made me laugh alot.

We met Ronny when he worked for my dad, and knew him for many years. He was always quick to greet with a courteous hello, and there were many shared laughs. We are sorry to hear of his passing, and our thoughts and prayers go out to his family during their time of grief.

My condolences to your family. Treasure your memories and they will give you comfort in the months to come. May God give you comfort (2nd Corint. 1:3 & 4). You are in my prayers.

I was so saddened to hear of Ron's passing. Growing up Ron could make anyone laugh, I am sure as he got older he just got better at it. Such a nice guy was taken way to early from this life.

I met and became close friends with Ron when we were both 12 years old. We did some stupid, fun things together as adolescents and got away with most of it. Ron was quick to smile and to laugh and was genuinely bothered when his friends and loved ones were not happy. I am exceedingly lucky to have had such good friend for so long, even though he left us way too soon.

We were taken aback to learn of Ron's passing. Our hearts and best wishes go out to Robin, Taylor, Brandon, Masaka and Don, Nathaniel and Ashley, little Alex, Becky and Franz, Donna and her fiance, and the nephews Ben and Josh. Through the years, circumstance had brought us all together as members of one large extended family. As a result, the children, and the adults, were shown the possibilities for enriching one's life when the capriciousness of fate intervened. Ron was an integral part of so many scenarios, characterized by a laugh, a joke, a smile, or just plain fun. He will surely be missed, but there is no doubt that he would be the first to encourage everybody to love and hug one another and get on with the business of looking out for each other. Ron loved his children and his family and a man could do no more. Peace to you friend.
