It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that the family of Ronald Morgan, 76 of Nasonworth, wish to announce that on November 16, 2022, Ron made his final long haul run on the Highway to Heaven where the pain and suffering are no more.
Ronnie was born on August 5, 1946 in Nasonworth where he lived and built his entire life. At 15 he discovered his passion for the trucking industry which led to a 55 year long career on 18 wheels that took him on many adventures near and far but the thing he loved to see most was home. He loved many things in life, but none more than his family. Constantly reminding them how proud he was of them and how much he loved them. Ronnie was one of a kind, with the biggest heart you could ever find in a person. He loved the outdoors, to hunt and fish, and was just as happy to sit around the table having a few drinks and playing cards with friends. He was a simple man with a simple life, yet so happy and humble.
Ron is survived by his wife of 42 years Cindy; two children, Amanda and David; his bonus daughter Alison; five grandchildren, Mark, Tiffany, Kelli, Jason and Makayla and 3 great-grandchildren, Bentley, Lorelai, Julia; special nephew and niece John and Cathy Morgan; brothers-in-law, Freeman (Maxine), Tony (Tina) & Curtis (Laura); sisters-in-law, Shelia (Dave), Karen (Eric), Michelle (Darrell), and Cindy (Jim); as well as many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins. Ron is predeceased by his parents, Walter and Mary Morgan; two brothers, Ivan and Allen; a sister, Grace; mother-in-law and step father-in-law, Myra and Jim Kay; father-in-law, Curtis Hiscock, son-in-law Terry McLaughlin and sister-in-law Jody Clement.
To honour Ronnie’s wishes there will be no visitation or funeral. There will be a private graveside committal at his request with Pastor Gary Gray officiating. Pallbearers will be Amanda Morgan, David Morgan, Mark Harnish, Kelli Morgan, John Morgan, Johnny Morgan, Tony Hiscock and Donnie McLaughlin. Personal condolences can be made through Bishop’s Funeral Home. In Lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or the Canadian Lung Association.
