Ronald “Ron” Lee McDuffee, 67, of Fishers, Indiana, passed away on September 16, 2025. He was born on March 18, 1958, in Anderson, Indiana, to the late Arnold and Mary Jane McDuffee.

Ron was a proud graduate of Pendleton Height High School, class of 1976. His passion for learning extended beyond formal education; he developed a lifelong interest in the wonders of space and astronomy.

He is remembered for his dedication and hard work throughout his career at Pep Boys, from which he retired after many years in the auto parts industry.

An avid sports enthusiast, Ron was always loyal to his favorite teams. He was a devoted fan of the Green Bay Packers, supported the Indiana Fever, cheered for the Pacers, and anticipated the excitement of the Indy 500 each year.

Ron is survived by his spouse, Julie; daughters, Nikole (Andy) Danner and Veronica (Dyson Colton) McDuffee; 3 grandchildren and step-sons, Patrick Nice and Christopher Nice.

Ron was preceded in passing by his parents, his sister, Christina Jones, and niece, Sydney Jones.
