He enlisted in the US Army in 1948 and graduated from Mendota Township High School in 1949. He re-enlisted into US Air Force in 1949. While in the service he attended several service schools, served in Korea in 1952-1953 and was honorably discharged in 1954. He married Dora Lee Staab at St. Joseph's Church in Kimball in 1950. They lived in Wyoming, California, Texas, Nebraska, Illinois, Colorado, South Carolina, and New York before returning to Kimball after he retired in 1995. During these 45 years, he became a very active member of the Catholic Church where he was a member of a Catholic School Board and a Eucharistic Minister. He was a Cub, Boy Scout leader and a Civil Air Patrol Leader; a Little League Coach; member of AMVETS, the VFW and the American Legion. After he retired he was also a member of the Kimball Rotary Club and the Kimball Lions Club. Ron worked all his life starting at the age of seven as a part time laborer and clerk until he entered military service. After he was discharged from military service he was a guard at the old Sioux Ordinance Depot in Sidney. He was a truck driver, roughneck and derrick hand in the Nebraska, Colorado and Wyoming oil fields. He then spent the next 38 years working as a claims adjuster, claims supervisor and claims manager. After he retired and his wife of 47 years passed away, Ron accepted the position of Kimball County Veterans Service Officer.
