Ronald Campora Obituary
His father owned a Propane business, and Ron loved the trucks and spent as much time as possible at the propane plant. He started working on the trucks as a very young child, and became an excellent mechanic and driver.
Ron was very good with animals, from horses to cats. He enjoyed blackjack and Las Vegas, NASCAR races and the Oakland Raiders. He met people easily and had many friends.
He is survived by his brother Tom, with whom he owned and operated the propane business, his mother Sue Smith, his sister Carolyn (Bunny), and his fiancée, Karen Somers. Ron was a wonderful son, brother and friend.

So sorry to hear of the passing of Ron. Dom Campora, Ron's father helped my father start his propane business in Redding, CA in 1962. Ron made many trips to Redding throughout those years. Our thoughts are with this family.
Sincerely,
Mike and Jo Ann Montgomery

Ron will surely be missed by all. I'll miss the nightly trip to Starbucks for a cup of coffee and BS. Best wishes to his family and all that will miss him so very much.
