Ronald M. Grelle, 82 of Windham, NH, died on Monday, November 4, 2024 at the Parkland Hospital in Derry, NH.
Ronald was born in Lawrence on September 24, 1942 and was the son of Mario A. and Angelina R. (Palermo) Grelle.
Ronald was raised in Methuen and Salem and was a graduate of Woodbury High School, Class of 1958 and later Brewster Academy and Wentworth Institute of Technology. He enlisted in the United States Airforce and served in the Vietnam War. He worked as a computer programmer until his retirement from Agfa-Bayer. After retirement, he moved to Nashville and worked security for the Nashville Predators, working both sporting events and music events.
