Ronald "Ron" Lee Oliver, age 77, of Union, KY, sadly passed away on September 28, 2025. Born in Covington, KY, on September 26, 1948, to Wiley R. Oliver and Nancy Davis Oliver, Ron dedicated his life to service and family. He proudly served as a Detective with the Cincinnati Police Department from 1972 to 1981 before taking on a significant role at General Electric as head of Transportation. Additionally, Ron was a committed member of the Army Reserves for six years. Ron was not only a devoted husband, father, and grandfather but also a cornerstone of his family and community. He is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, Carol Oliver; son Sean Oliver (Cassie McQueen); daughter Kim Bramlage (Steve); sister Josephine Ashcraft; and cherished grandchildren Cameron, Landon, Sandra, and Sophia. In honor of Ron's legacy and the impact he made, services will be private and held at the family's convenience. We encourage those wishing to honor him to make a memorial contribution to the American Cancer Society, PO Box 6704, Hagerstown, MD 21741. Online condolences can be shared with the family at www.stithfuneralhome.com, providing an opportunity for friends to express their heartfelt sympathies.
