Ronald Messenger
September 6, 1958 — June 22, 2015
"Captain" Ron Messenger
On Monday, June 22, 2015 our husband, father, mentor, friend and brother went home to the Lord. The hole left by his departure will be deeply felt by the hundreds of people whose lives he touched and enriched. Of all the men this family has been proud to know, he has set the standard we will all strive to achieve. Carpenter, mechanic, engineer, a helping hand in dark times, and a kind word and patient ear for any who needed it, he is survived by his equally remarkable wife, Jacks; his children, who he adored and who worshipped him: Brody, Alexa, Kevin, Steve, and Ron (Julie); his two grandchildren, Kate and Eva, who will be blessed to grow up in a world filled with people who remember and have learned from their grandpa; his mother, Mary; and his siblings, Daniel, Richard, and Candy. The wealth of friends who he treated as his family will stand as a tribute to this truly great man.
Calling hours will be held on Friday, June 26, 2015 from 4 to 7pm at Newcomer Funeral Home, 131 N. Canton Rd Akron. A celebration of Ron's life will be conducted in the funeral home on Saturday, June 27, 2015 at 11am. In lieu of flowers the family has created a Go Fund me account for the establishment of a trust for Brody and Alexa. Please visit www.gofundme.com, look under 1-year college for Brody and Alexa
