Ronald Philip Vigue
1942-2025
It is with a heavy heart and profound love that I announce the very sudden passing of Ron Vigue, (Pop) my cherished husband, devoted companion and irreplaceable part of the lives of friends and family.
Born on November 16, 1942, in Durham N. C. he left us on May 22, 2025, at home in Panama City Beach holding my hand.
He was preceded in death by his mother and father and infant son Michael.
He was a man of kindness, strength, and quiet wisdom to all his friends and family. His was the purest form of love, genuine, quiet and strong. He was a steadfast partner in all our life challenges, celebrating our triumphs with joy and providing solace and strength during our challenges. Our shared memories of laughter, adventures, simple evenings on the porch overlooking the bay and the fun visits from our kids and grandkids in the mountains of north Georgia remain etched in my heart.
He was not one to boast, but his achievements included a BA degree from Lenoir Rhyne College in Hickory, N. C., where he was the president of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity and was listed in the register of Who's Who Among Students in the American Colleges and Universities.
His exciting careers involved part ownership in a 100M Intimate Apparel Company in Atlanta and a successful late career selling log homes for the Sisson Company in the North Georgia Mountains that he loved.
He is survived by son, Ronald Philip Jr. (Rusty) and his fiancée, Elizabeth, daughter, Jennifer and her husband Tim, stepdaughters Lisa and her husband Sam, Laurie and her husband Brad, grandchildren, Sam, Sayler, Hayley, Emily, Ryan, Tate and Rylee, great grandchildren Ian, and John Walker. We all called him "Pop." He loved them all deeply.
Pop, though you are no longer with us, your love remains guiding us through each day and your legacy will continue to inspire us to live with the same quiet resilience and kindness.
A celebration of life will take place on a date to be announced.
Rest in God's arms my dear husband. You will always be in my heart.
