It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Ronald Von Welch, who departed this life on October 1, 2025, at the age of 72. Ronald was born on April 12, 1953, in Portales, New Mexico.
He graduated from high school in Albuquerque, New Mexico and joined the family trucking business.
Ron eventually left the family business for employment with Southwestern Bell Telephone where he enjoyed a thirty-year career until his retirement in Lubbock, Texas where he lived for the remainder of his life. He held different positions with Southwestern Bell but retired as a Technical Development Manager, where he earned the respect and admiration of his colleagues. He will be remembered not only for his professional achievements but also for his unwavering commitment to excellence.
Ron is survived by his daughter, Sarah Kubala, his sister, Loretta Jo Moss, and many cousins.
