Ron graduated from Redlands High School in 1971. He worked for Fedco for 28 years and was well-liked by his employees and customers. After retirement, Ron enjoyed spending time with family and friends. He was a member of the Paradise Valley Car Club and the Pomona Valley model A Club. One of Ron's favorite pastimes was spending many hours working on his Model A Truck-"O' Billy". Ron also loved photography, taking pictures of his family and various car club events. He leaves behind his wife Edna; his mom, Patricia Krahn, and stepdad Donald and stepson Michael. He is survived by 3 brothers and 4 sisters and other extended family. Ron also leaves behind a stepdaughter Christine and son-in-law Michael and two grandsons, Rudy and Harrison. Ronald was preceded in death by his father Robert (Earl), his son Ryan, and brother Randy.
