Ronald Day Obituary

Nampa - Ron, age 81, was born in Caldwell Id. January 21,1942 to Clifford George Day and Hallie (Hayes) Day. He died August 19,2023 at home in Nampa, Id. from leukemia.

He spent his whole life here in the treasure valley. He graduated from Nampa High School in 1961. In 1964 he married Susan Thompson. They had 3 children, Rhonda, Bradley, & Kyle. They divorced in 1990. In 1991 he married Janice Dillehay. Ron was an amazing person. God gave him many talents and he used them well. He could figure out how to fix, repair, design or build almost anything. He loved being able to help others and did so often. He was especially good at working with wood and built so many beautiful custom cabinets all over the valley. He liked riding dirt bikes, snowmobiles, and later in life playing golf. He gave his life to Jesus Christ and his faith was strong right to the end.

He is survived by his wife Jan Day, son Brad Day, step children Tani Hughes (Dale) and Lee Labar. Grandchildren, Jared Day, Noah Day, Micah Day, Noel Hughes, Kendall Hughes, & Ronald Hughes, 2 great grandchildren and 1 brother, Clifford Keith Day. He was predeceased by his parents, daughter Rhonda & son Kyle.

Thank you to St. Luke's Cancer Institute-Nampa, Dr. Michael Dee and Keystone hospice for the wonderful care they gave Ron.

At his request there will be no service. Instead of flowers please consider a donation to Shriner's Hospital or a charity of your choice.
