Ronald "Ron" E. Slane

Ron was a lovely man. Always had a smile on his face. All the dogs who knew him loved him. He got so much pleasure from his vegetable gardens, particularly his strawberries! Tapping trees for maple syrup, wine making. He had many talents. I will miss him.

Thank you for some great memories with Aunt Lorna and the girls when I was young. You were a kind person and thank you for always caring.

On behalf of the Badger Honor Flight Board and all our volunteers, we extend our deepest condolences to you all, the family of Ronald Slane. We are forever thankful for his service to our great country. What an honor it was to take him on his “Trip of a Lifetime”. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

We lost one of the greats. RIP Uncle Ron. Thank you for all the camping and fishing trips, for helping me pick out my first house, being there during the inspection, replacing windows and building the hot tub deck, just to name a few things. Your generosity, kindness, and willingness to always lend a hand meant so much. You will be deeply missed and your memory will live on in the countless moments you shared with all of us. A beautifully written obit.

My Uncle Ron, Because of Ron. Yes, he was a gentle man who had endless patience for every person he met. Even a very young lad who wanted to learn to fish. The patience to take a 7 year old, who never fished or tied on a hook. He taught me that. I think of all the tough jobs and hard work he had going on, and he still took time to teach me about fishing. He also had a soft heart for animals, which I enjoyed with him. Ron was responsible for getting our family our first dog named Carmel. Since that day I have never been without a furry friend. I think alot of people can say... because of Ron...this happened or that happened. He made it happen! Rest in peace my good man, until I see you again. Sharing your Love. Mike Storch
