Ronald Komp Obituary

Komp, Ronald

Ronald Komp, age 70. Welcomed to Heaven on May 30th, 2017.

I am writing to say goodbye to my loving family.

Brian, Laurie, Craig and Scott, who were always there for me.

I know things happened fast, but this is how it was meant to be.

I've prayed my whole life through, that someday in Heaven I could be.

And that is why the Lord decided, this was the time to take me.

Please accept God's decision; For I am as happy as can be.

I am honored and am grateful for the many blessings He has given me.

My grandkids: Kyle, Chloe, Eli, Mia, Maci, Calvin and Harrison. And my loving wife, Beverly. My son-in-law, Brian. My daughters-in-law, Katie and Twila.

My brother Steve and my two sisters, Kathy and Sherry, and my sister-in-law, Deb.

The funeral liturgy for Bucky will be held on Tuesday, June 6, 2017 at 11:30 AM at ST. BERNADETTE CATHOLIC CHURCH, 2331 E. Lourdes Dr. A time of visitation will be held on Tuesday from 9:30 AM until the time of the service at the church. Online condolences may be expressed at www.wichmannfargo.com.

Bev and family, We are so sorry to hear about Ron. We have many fond memories of the old St. Bernadette and St. Joe's days of ball games and "get-togethers." We know he is in a much better place but it doesn't help the hurt and sadness we are feeling now. Please know we will keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers. Take care and God Bless you all.

Craig, Scott, Bev and family, There are no words that are adequate when you lose someone you love. I hope that the pain you feel now will ease in time and when little things trigger a memory of him they will instead, bring a sweet, loving comfort to you. He will be with you always. You have my deepest sympathy.

I was shocked and saddened when Bev informed me this morning that Buck had passed away. My heart broke for Bev and her family. Buck was a great neighbor, friend and an even better man. He always had a smile on his face and was eager to talk to me about the Packers or Badgers. He was always very kind to Dar and I and our young grandchildren Easton and Claire. I'll always remember the day when after Buck and Easton had visited, Easton waved goodbye and said "bye unka Buck"! It's very sad when you lose a dear friend. It's heartwarming to know God only takes the very best to be angels in heaven. Keep smiling unka Buck!!
