Ronnie Lee Longbrake age 57, of Lima and formerly of DeGraff, Ohio died Friday, July 11, 2025 in his home. He was born in Lima on February 15, 1968 and is the son of the late Ronnie Longbrake and Junette (Legge) Longbrake who survives in Lima.

His great passion was people; anyone he met, he considered a 'friend'. Lee never knew a stranger and loved to talk to everyone. He was a collector of many things throughout his life but two that were most important were cars and watches.

He is survived by his siblings: Randy Longbrake and Annette Caudill both of Lima, niece Heather Caudill of Toledo and cousins: Bobbi (Mark) Frysinger, Robbie Legge, Stephen (Dawn) Hattery, Kevin Scott, D.J. Scott and Billy Longbrake, Aunt Joyce (Longbrake) Lehner, Uncle Bill (Cindy) Longbrake, Grandmother Doris Howell Longbrake Mills and much other extended family.

He was preceded in death by his Uncles Robert Legge, Paul Legge and Stephen Hattery, Aunt Shirley Hattery and grandparents: Robert and Fleta Legge, Bill Longbrake and Rocky Mills.

A private family service will be held at a late date and Ronnie 'Lee' will be laid to rest at Highland Memorial Cemetery in West Liberty, Ohio with his father.
