Obituary of Ronald Allyn George Joseph Romanchuk

Ron Romanchuk July 15, 1950 – May 31, 2023 It is with great sadness that our family announces the passing of Ronald Allyn George Joseph Romanchuk. Ron was born on July 15th, 1950 to Elizabeth and George in Drumheller, Alberta. In 1970 Ron wed the love of his life Marion “Jeanette” Bergquist, and began creating our beautiful family. During his life there was nothing that Ron enjoyed more than spending time with his wife, family, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He loved camping, building things, working on vehicles and mowing the grass. He was a very hard worker so when there was a job to be done, he made sure it got finished. Throughout his life, Ron maintained a strong foothold in the Lumber Industry, where he spent his time as a heavy equipment operator at Millar Western in Whitecourt. Ron is survived by his loving wife, Jeanette, his sons; Trent (Kelly,) and Nick (Barb,) his grandchildren; Colby, Ally-Ann, Carter, Cohen, Kelsie, Alyssa, and Emma, his great-grandchildren Amira, and Owyn, his sister, Linda Verbaas, Brother in law Harvey, Sisters in law Agnes, Debbie and Louise, numerous nieces, nephews, other family members, and countless friends that were made throughout his lifetime. Ron is predeceased by his parents, Elizabeth and George, as well as his daughter Becky and Brother-in-law Jim Verbaas. It brings us great comfort knowing that Ron is taking care of Becky now. For those who so desire memorial donations can be made directly to The Canadian Lung Association 885 Meadowlands Dr. Suite 502 Ottawa, ON, K2C 3N2, to assist in funding research towards COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.) A celebration of life for Ron will be announced at a later date.
