Nov 12, 1954 – Jan 10, 2021 (Age 66)
Ronald Emile Eith, 66 of Howell passed away Sunday, January 10, 2021 at Ocean Medical Center. He was born in Staten Island, NY on November 12th, 1954 to Robert and June Eith.
Surviving are his wife Viola Eith, three children, Tracy Pearce and her husband Joseph, Kim Rupp, and Ronald R. Eith; siblings, Robert Eith and his wife Virginia, Donald Eith and his wife Christine, Linda Cerbone and her husband Jim, and Laurie Bournique and her husband Rick; four grandchildren Colin, June, Trevor, and Renee; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and extended family.
Ronald worked as an auto mechanic and truck driver prior to starting his own business as a master plumber, where he proudly worked alongside his son, who was his best friend.
Over the years Ronald was an Eagle Scout, coached his son's little league baseball teams, enjoyed fishing on his boat, gardening, cooking his famous chili, Disney vacations with his family, and was a NY Giants fan. He was a devoted husband, father, brother, uncle and grandfather. Spending time with his family was what he cherished most. You could often find him relaxing on his boat on a warm summer's day. His warmhearted and generous spirit will be greatly missed by all who loved him.
No funeral services will be held at this time. A memorial celebrating his life will be held at a future date. Colonial Funeral Home, Brick is in charge of arrangements.

We are sad to hear of the passing of Ron Eith, our favorite plumber. Although we knew him only as a customer, he was our "go to" guy whenever we had a plumbing problem to solve. And solve problems he did, with good ideas, good workmanship, fair prices, a congenial disposition and a "can do" mindset. We wish we could hire him again, right now. We already miss him.

This sweet and gentle man was more of a father to me and more of a grandfather to my children than our own. His kind and humorous spirit will truly be missed. Wishing the family much peace and comfort during this difficult time. RIP Mr. Eith. I’ll let you win a round of Pac Man when I see you on the other side.

We met Ron when we first moved to Howell and needed a plumber. Was impressed with his work and he did so many jobs for us over the years that we got to know him well. He was a good person and we considered him a friend. He will be missed by many. So saddened by his passing.
