"West Des Moines - Ron wrote a great obituary for his wife Maxine in May of this year. Here is an effort to honor his life and legacy. Ron was a wonderful son, brother, husband, father, grandfather, and person. He dearly loved his family and friends. Ron was 85 years of age when he joined his Lord Jesus in heaven on Saturday, December 5, 2020...."
Four times Ron was named by his peers as the Sportswriter of the Year in Iowa and in 2006 he was honored as a charter member of the University of Iowa's media Wall of Fame in the Kinnick Stadium press box. After he retired from over 40 years in the newspaper business, Ron wrote the best-selling book "Tales from the Iowa Sidelines: A Collection of the Greatest Hawkeye Stories Ever Told". 2016 was a special year for Ron and other lifelong fans of the Chicago Cubs.
