Ronald "Ronnie" James Woodby, 59, of High Point, North Carolina, passed away on October 25, 2025.

Born on May 3, 1966, Ronnie was the beloved son of Patricia Woodby and the late Ronald Woodby. He was also preceded in passing by his sister, Loretta Kemp.

Ronnie is survived by his devoted wife of 30 years, Danielle; his cherished daughters, Lauren and Morgan; his loving mother, Patricia Woodby; and his sisters, Monica Wall (Tom), and Patti Potts (Curtis). He is also survived by his mother-in-law, Elizabeth Des Rochers (Steele); brothers-in-law, Ernie Des Rochers and David Kemp; and by many nieces, nephews, a great-niece, and a great-nephew, all of whom he loved dearly.

A proud resident of High Point, Ronnie worked as a financial analyst with Lincoln Financial Group, where he was known for his dedication, professionalism, and the joy he found in his work. Outside of his career, Ronnie's heart was as big as his smile - he had a genuine desire to help others and a knack for making people laugh with his witty one-liners and quirky sense of humor.

Ronnie had a lifelong admiration for eagles and enjoyed collecting eagle-themed items. He was also a passionate Kansas City Chiefs fan, cheering on his team through every season with enthusiasm and loyalty.

Above all, Ronnie will be remembered as a loving husband, devoted father, caring son, brother, and friend. His kindness, humor, and generosity will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.

The family will receive friends from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM on Saturday, November 1, 2025, at Cumby Family Funeral Service in High Point, NC.
