Ronald "Ron" William Patzer passed away Monday January 23, 2012 from a long battle with a progressive illness. Ron was born May 30, 1940 in Seattle, WA to Gilbert and Louise Manzo Patzer.

Though he worked with another grade level in a very large school, at that time, his presence was school wide. I will miss his sense of humor and his caring for the students he met. Sue Rookaird

"Mr." Patzer was one of a handful of wonderful mentors to me when I started my teaching career at Silver Lake Elementary. When I ran into him years later, he still remembered me and gave me that big smile of his! What a great and good influence he had on so many of us! Please accept my condolences on your loss.

I taught with Ron, and enjoyed playing raquetball with him (despite losing consistently; he was quite good). Most of all I loved his sense of humor, and his "gruff" exterior that the kids always figured out - they knew his kindness, and were entertained by his stories, especially at Camp Silverton. I'll miss him.

I know that Ron's family and many friends will miss his sence of humor. I was fortunate to be able to share with Ron many experiences as his roomate in at Western. We had a GREAT deal of fun trying to top each other on any thing that would come up. We both became interested in Sunbeam Tigers while attending Western and when Ron graduated up showed a Tiger. Not to be out done I soon also owned one. Ron was present when I first met my wife, Carol, and was an usher at our wedding. Even when I...
