Ronald Schroyer Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Schlientz & Moore Funeral Home - Dayton on Feb. 9, 2026.
SCHROYER, Ronald "Ron" Eugene, a cherished son, brother, uncle, and friend, left this world on Saturday afternoon, February 7, 2026, at the age of 32. Born on Sunday, November 14, 1993, in Dayton, Ohio, Ron was a beacon of love and humor in the lives of all who knew him. He passed away peacefully in his hometown, surrounded by the family he adored, due to natural causes.

Ron is survived by a loving family that includes his mother, Deborah Combs; his father, Ronald Schroyer; his brothers, Donald and Joseph (Courtney) Schroyer; his adored niece, Raelynn Schroyer; his playful nephew, Cade Schroyer; along with his cousins, Dylan Shepherd and Samantha Taylor; his aunt, Barbara Taylor; his uncle, Ronnie Combs; and his grandfather, Donald Schroyer. Each of these family members played a significant role in Ron's life, contributing to the joy and love that he carried with him every day.

A man of simple pleasures, Ron found the most joy in simply being with the people he loved. His presence at family gatherings was always a source of laughter and warmth. He was deeply proud to be part of his family, and he never took that bond for granted. Ron's love for his family was evident in the way he committed to being present, whether it was a quiet evening at home, a big get-together, an afternoon watching his favorite football or basketball teams, or engaging in friendly competition over video games. These shared moments were the ones he cherished most, and they are the memories that his family will hold dear as they remember his loving spirit.

Those who knew Ron would describe him as loving, funny, and gentle. A man who could lighten any room with his humor and whose gentle nature made him a confidant and friend to many. He had a knack for making people feel comfortable and valued, a trait that endeared him to his wide circle of friends and colleagues.

As the poet Maya Angelou once said, "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." Ron lived by this philosophy, leaving a lasting impact on the hearts of those he encountered. His legacy is one of love, laughter, and the gentle touch of a man who truly understood the value of connection.

Ron's passing is a profound loss to all who knew him. He will be remembered as a man who lived with intention, cherished his relationships, and brought joy to every occasion. Though he has left this world far too soon, the memories of his love and laughter will continue to resonate with his family, friends, and all who were fortunate enough to have been a part of his life.

Ronald Schroyer's life was a testament to the beauty of familial bonds and the simple joys that create a life well lived. As we say goodbye to Ron, we celebrate the time we had with him and the indelible mark he left on our lives. He will be deeply missed, but his spirit will live on in the stories we share and the love we continue to give, inspired by his example.

May He Rest In Peace.
