Ronald Compher Obituary

Ronald Lee Compher

In Loving Memory of

Ronald Lee Compher

We mourn the passing of Ron, who entered the arms of God and Heaven on April 7, 2024. Born on April 11, 1946, in Harrisburg, PA, to Bernard Eugene Compher and Anna Marie Carson Compher, Ron leaves a legacy of love, courage, and wisdom.

At the age of 18, he answered the call of duty and enlisted in the Air Force, where he served his country with honor, completing three tours in Vietnam. After his military service, he had a distinguished career as an accountant. Ron touched the lives of countless individuals with his integrity and generosity.

Ron is survived by his loving daughters, Rhonda Rochelle Compher (49) and Renee Regine Compher (46), former wife Rommie Delgado-Compher (74), his cherished grandson Sol Felipe Compher-Scott (6.5), and his beloved sister Susie Dingas (Mike). He also leaves behind many nieces and nephews who had the privilege of calling him uncle.

May you rest in eternal peace, knowing that your love and kindness will never be forgotten.

Interment: Santa Fe National Cemetery, Tuesday, May 7, 2024, 1:00 pm mdt

Celebration of Life: Saturday, May 11, 2024 3:00 pm mdt
