Ronald "Ron" Bosley Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 9, 2016.
Ronald "Ron" E. Bosley, 77, was welcomed into heaven on Thursday, September 8, 2016. Born September 3, 1939, in Dixon, IL. to Harold and Eva May Bosley. Gracing the dance floor and always a filled dance card, Ron entertained the crowds with his showmanship. He met his wife, Edith Agnew, of 29 years on the dance floor. Ron enjoyed showcasing his talents with the guitar and welcomed a sing-a-long with family or friends. Often times you would find Ron on stage singing and playing with a band. He enjoyed all varieties of music. He found relaxation with the companionship of a good fishing pole and memories made camping and traveling with his family. Ron was a hard worker and the rewards he earned were the luxuries of his travels, especially to the Bahamas, Jamaica and Hawaii. Ron loved surrounding himself with his family.

Ron shared his life with wife, Edie; Ron's children, Wendy (Chris) Bosley-Lobdell and Steve Bosley; Edie's children, Karen (Peter) Buch; grandchildren, Josh (Shelby) Bosley, Amber Gruner, Dawn (Bill) Ebhan, Kelley (Scott) Ziola; four, great-grandchildren; nephews, Les Bend, David Bend. Predeceased by parents; 2 sisters and 2 brothers.

Graveside Service will be held 10:00 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 17, at Sunset Memorial Gardens Devotion Section 8800 N. Alpine Rd. Machesney Park, Il. To express condolences, visit www.advantagefunerals.com
