Ronald L. Getchell

I am so sorry to hear that Ron passed away. Both of us were from Montana and I had many enjoyable conversations with Ron when we worked at Kentrox in the 90's. Especially when his Univ of Montana Grizz' (notice the "Grizz" on his shirt in the obit picture) played the Montana State Univ 'Cats (I went to MSU) in football (they are MAJOR sports rivals). I'm sure he would have been very gracious in defeat ... if the Grizz' had ever lost ... which they never did back then.

Very sad to hear about Ron´s passing. I had the pleasure of working with Ron at Kentrox and fortunate to have him as my neighbor. Ron was a good man, someone that will be missed very much.

So sorry to hear of Ron´s passing, I remember one time he said to me when he was helping out during a tough time in my family´s life, he said "that is what friends are for".

I knew Ron at Kentrox '91-97. He always had a great sense of humor and lightness. I will miss his laughter and jokes. RIP

I was Ron´s dentist. And he was one of my very first patients. He wasn´t the kind of guy who could just come and go. He had to be friends with you. He always had an incredible smile on his face and jokes to tell. I always look forward to seeing him and thought that I would always see him again. I am very saddened by this news. With his great personality jokes and smile he was one-of-a-kind. I will miss him

Oh NO! I am shocked and deeply saddened by this news. Ron was among the very first friends I made in Deer Lodge. Open, honest, warm, and friendly; I can´t imagine anyone not being fond of him. I valued his friendship. RIP Getch.

So sorry to hear for Ron's passing. We worked together at Kentrox in the late 90's. Ron was a great guy. The stories he shared at work about Russ and Nat showed how important they were to him.

Condolences & prayers to and for all the family; I was good friends with Ron´s sister Robyn in school and even now we keep in touch. May the Lord strengthen you all during this time, and encourage you about reuniting one day, in Christ. Kim and Rick Buck

So very sorry and shocked to hear of Getch's passing. What a good guy he was. Thoroughly enjoyed his personality and his heart when I played sports with him in high school. I know my dad is greeting him in heaven as dad thought so much of Ron.
