Ronald E. Rennhack

  In May of 1948, Ron was born to George and Clara Rennhack (nee Buege) of Cheverly, MD.  Dark days were ahead when just four years later Ron's father died of diabetes.  It was something he never quite got over.   Ron married his high school sweetheart, Nancy in June 1970.  A career government employee, he worked at the Defense Dept beginning in 1973 and transferred to General Services Administration in 1980 from which he retired in 2007.   Ron was known to bring meals to neighbors as well as neighborhood cats.  Well known as "a very kind and patient man" by even store clerks and local pharmacists.
  Ron will be greatly missed by his beloved wife, Nancy (nee Tuttle), his sister-in-law Rosanne Gross, niece Amanda Gross and nephew Adam Gross, along with many dear cousins, relatives, friends and acquaintances.  He is preceded in death by his sister Carolyn Timus and dear brother Donald as well as his sweet little mother-in-law, Celia Tuttle Kosti.   We picture Ron running gleefully now with many, many happy black cocker spaniels!   Please join us in a celebration of his life beginning with visitation Friday, January 19th, 2024 at 3pm immediately followed by a memorial service at 7pm.   In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the American Heart Association.
