Ronald J. Goracke

I was stunned to hear of Ron's passing. I first met Ron and Margie as customers at the Bike Rack. Ron always had a great smile and was so kind. Ron and Margie loved to ride bikes and I was lucky to get to ride with them sometimes. Sending prayers for Margie and the whole Goracke family.

My sincere condolences to Margie and the Goracke family! I was a neighbor of Ron & Margie and could always count on a friendly hello and a smile from Ron whenever I saw him in the driveway. I moved away several years ago, but before I left, I remember seeing him in the driveway one day with a camper van. When I asked him about it, he showed me the van and spoke with great joy about the new hobby he and Margie had taken up with some friends. His joy was contagious and I know many will...

Ron was an amazing person. He was always so happy with a contagious smile to brighten your day. He could out cycle me in spin class at the gym any day. He only saw me every 6 months, but he always asked about my family and he never had a quiet cleaning in my chair. He will be missed by so many, including me. Sending lots of prayers to Margie and his family. —

Ron was such a sweet and caring man. I will never forget the way he treated everyone with kindness, genuine concern and respect. He considered everyone he knew as a friend and every stranger as a new friend to meet. It is so rare to find a true gentleman in today's world and Ron exemplified that each and everyday. He will be missed by so many. My deepest sympathy to his family.

I attended Rummel High with Ron. We had several classes together and he was one person who helped make those formative years fun. Throughout the years when I reflect on those times, his name always comes to mind. I send my sincere condolences to the family. Ron was a great person.

Our hearts ache for you. Ron was such a special person, always ready to share that infectious smile of his. In addition to being a great accountant/advisor for us for 35+ years, he was also a friend. Let your precious memories keep him close to your heart...

Went to grade school with Ron at St. Philip Neri. Remember him as being a real nice kid. Rest in peace, Ron. Carol Lohmeier-Blanchard

Can not begin to express our sadness at the sudden loss of Ron. Met him in church 20+ years ago. Such a kind, gentle, soft spoken man. Like others he has helped us with our business through the years but enjoyed hearing of his great travels and he enjoyed talking Chiefs football with us. Glad he was able to go to a game with us last year. He enjoyed life and his family so much. Our prayers are with his entire family.
