Ronald Roloff Obituary
Ronald Kevin Roloff
September 1st, 1953 - October 14th, 2023
On the serene morning of October 14th, 2023, Ronald Kevin Roloff, a beacon of love and laughter, departed this world at the age of 70, surrounded by his cherished family at United Hospital in Saint Paul, MN. Born under the same Minnesota skies on September 1st, 1953, Ronald's journey was one of passion, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to the community he loved.
To know Ronald was to experience the warmth of his infectious smile, his quick-wited humor, and the joy he found in life's simple pleasures - be it a friendly game of pool, the thrill of a fast car, or the excitement of a game of blackjack. But beyond these hobbies, Ronald's heart truly belonged to his family and friends, with whom he shared countless memories and milestones.
A proud son of Minneapolis, Ronald dedicated over four decades to serving his community as a maintenance worker for the city. His meticulous care ensured that parks sparkled for children's laughter and family picnics, and his dedication made him an indispensable asset to the city's team. Ronald's generosity knew no bounds; his ever-ready hand extended in assistance, and his ability to listen without judgment made him a pillar of strength for many. In his presence, one always felt seen, heard, and
valued.
Though the void left in our family gatherings and special occasions will be deeply felt, we find comfort in the belief that Ronald now resides in a place of eternal joy and peace, watching over us with his signature smile.
Preceded in his journey by his beloved mother, Mary McCulloch; and sister, Linda Miller, Ronald's legacy lives on in the hearts of his father, Robert McCulloch; his wife, Roxie Roloff; his children, Kevin Roloff (Roslyn Roloff), Melissa Roloff (Dustin Hansch), and Jennifer Geringer (Ryan Geringer); and his treasured grandchildren, Bryce Roloff, Mariah Hansch, Aili Larson, Breanna Hansch, Mason Hansch, Justin Roloff, and Ryker Geringer.
We invite you to celebrate Ronald's remarkable life at Miller Funeral Home, 6210 Hwy 65 NE in Fridley on Saturday. October 21st, at noon, with visitation one hour prior. In honor of Ronald's vibrant spirit, we encourage attendees to bring flowers, which can be sent directly to the funeral home.
