Ronald Riel Obituary
Ron was born in Philadelphia, PA, to Briccio (Ricky) and Lina DeGuzman Riel on February 16, 1970.
The Riel family moved from Philadelphia to Las Vegas, NV, in 1976. He attended Western High School and graduated from UNLV with a degree in Computer Science. As an avid sports fan, it was fitting that he worked at the Caesars Palace and Wynn Race and Sports. It was at Caesars Palace where he met his wife, Kristen. They shared a passion for baseball and Disney. Ron was very caring about his family and friends. He never hesitated to lend a helping hand whenever or wherever he could.
Ron is preceded in death by our parents, Briccio and Lina Riel, and his wife, Kristen Lane Riel.
Ron is survived by his sisters, Lisa Riel, and Lynda Riel Posgay, and his beloved nephew and niece, Kyler and Karyn Posgay.
Please join us for Ron’s Celebration of Life and wear your favorite Star Trek, Star Wars, Marvel, Disney, and Sports gear as these were all favorites of Ron.
