Ronald Lee Delimont was a happy and friendly person who loved spending time with his family. He loved boating and anything on the lake. In his professional life, he loved traveling and meeting new and interesting people all over the U.S. He was a great salesman and an entrepreneur. His goal was a house on the lake with kids and grandkids running around happy as can be.

He was blessed with five children: Alissa Gibson, Danielle Hartwell, Jake Stewart, Cody Stewart, and Ashlie Stewart. Along with his five children, he was blessed with eight grandchildren. He loved his family absolutely more than anything in the world. He was a very giving person. Ron was always so eager to help others and gave such useful information to everyone. Ron truly had a good heart and was so kind to anyone he knew and who he didn't know. For anyone that knows Ron, they will know he spent most of his life giving to others. He hated seeing people struggle and would do anything to get them back on their feet. To him, he thought everyone deserved a chance in life.

Furthermore, he was a very intelligent man. If anyone had questions about anything at all, Ron was the first to go to. He was definitely a trustworthy and honest man. Another characteristic about Ron is that he was very determined and driven. If he wanted something done, he would accomplish it. No matter what occupation he had, he gave 110%. Being a hard worker was something he always stressed to people. "If people work hard, they will be rewarded," was something he always said. What made him so successful and smart was that he was a problem solver. If he had to question twenty people to find answers, he would. Learning was something he loved and enjoyed doing it very much.

Ron will be missed by so many. He made differences in peoples lives and changed them for the better. And whether or not times were bad, he always kept a smile on his face and reminded everyone, "life is good".
