Ronald Axelrod, 64, passed away peacefully in his home on Hilton Head Island on Saturday, June 15th, 2024. Ron was born on February 5, 1960 to Julian and Gloria Axelrod in Brooklyn, New York. During his childhood, he lived in New York, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and Maryland.
Ron attended the University of Maryland and transferred after one year to Rutgers University, where he graduated with his bachelor's degree in Economics. In 1997, Ron co-founded Real-Time Technology Solutions, where he led the sales division for twenty-five years before his retirement in 2022. Ron was a beloved coworker and mentor who cared genuinely for the hundreds of employees, customers, and families he impacted.
In his personal life, Ron was a devoted husband, father, and dear friend to many. He met Adelina, the love of his life, in New York City, and they married in Key West, Florida in 1993. Together they raised their two children, David and Aaron. Ron was an avid golfer, sports fan, host, Halloween decorator, Little League coach, and amateur fencer.
Ron is survived by his wife, Adelina, his sons David and Aaron, his sister Sharon, and many friends he deeply cherished.
