Ron graduated Denmark High School, Class of 1969, then attended Short Course at UW Madison afterward returning home to farm with his father. Through friends, Ron met his wife of almost 45 years, Mary (Micksch) and together they raised their two sons along with Registered dairy cattle on the farm that celebrated the Century status on August 9, 2005. Active in the community Ron was a 4H leader for 46 years, a honorary life member of the Knights of Columbus #4735, on the board of the Holstein Breeders, DHIA testing, was a communion distributor and usher at St. Lawrence Church.
