Ronald J. Roberts

Ronald "Ron" J. Roberts, 76, of Luxemburg, passed away on November 24, 2023 at Aurora Baycare Medical Center. He was born on April 30, 1947 to George and Edna (Rickel) Roberts in Green Bay, WI. He attended Green Bay East High School. He married his childhood sweetheart, Marion Craw on May 8, 1965. Together they had five children and they all shared beautiful memories in the home he built for them. Ron's passion was working on street cars and he continued his father's art of making sausages and various smoked meats. Ron loved his dad, which included the love of helping him out with the cattle. When Ron was a child he would say he was at school when in reality he skipped by hiding in the back of the cattle truck. Ron was outgoing and could become friends with anyone - including a rock. He was an honest man of his word and did business with a handshake.

Ron is survived by his loving wife, Marion of 58 years; children: Rodney (Samantha) Roberts, Jody (Steve) Paul, Renee (Justin) Roberts, Ron Jr. (Julie) Roberts, and Monica (Tom) Bournville; grandchildren: Elizabeth, Jessica, Victoria, Michael, Summer, Reagan, Allie, Georgia, Sabrina, Colton, Peter, and Joseph; great-grandchildren: Colton, Madison, Landis, Lauren, Kayden, Hayden, Isabella, Emily, Abigail, Sean, Steven and Brooker; siblings: Ivan, Rena, Lindy, Gary, George Jr., and Janice; and further relatives and friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents and two brothers, Myron and Cletus.

An evening visitation will be held on Tuesday, November 28, 2023, from 4-7 PM at Newcomer Cremations, Funerals & Receptions (340 S. Monroe Ave). A Mass of Christian Burial will be held the following day, Wednesday, November 29, 2023 at 11 AM at St. Therese Catholic Church (E860 State Highway 29, Pilsen, WI ), with a visitation starting the hour prior.

The family would like to thank the wonderful staff at Eden Brook, Station 7, Aurora Baycare Emergency Room, and the second-floor nurses at St. Vincent's who all cared for Ron and helped the family during this time and express their gratitude for all the car buddies and true friends who have been with the family all these years.
