He retired in 1987 from the Kalispell Police Department as lieutenant detective. Although Ron had a distinguished career in law enforcement, he was best known for his passion for the game of golf.

In 1963, he married Sandy Lee Dunn and officially made Kalispell his home. After retiring from the Police Department, his children successfully lured him away from his Kalispell home to be an optician in Lubbock, Texas, but within several months, Ron had moved back to Kalispell and swore never to leave again. In 2005, Ron purchased a home on Village Greens Golf Course, where he enjoyed his retirement playing golf, riding in his cart, and visiting with friends. At the time of his death, He was employed part-time at Elm Locating Services as an office manager. He was preceded in death by his brother, Jimmie; and his parents, Jim and Rose. He was survived by his wife, Sandy; two sons; two daughters; and four grandchildren. Ron passed away peacefully on March 5, 2007, at his home in Kalispell, Montana after a sudden diagnosis of lung cancer.
