Ronny was born in Fort Scott, Kan., Jan. 24, 1949, to Hershel Leon Hall and Emma Lea Harris (Hall). He graduated from Fort Scott High School in 1967 and went on to attend MidAmerica Nazarene University in Olathe, Kan.
He then went to work as a welder for multiple companies and over 52 years of welding, Ronny reached his ultimate goal of being quality control manager. One of the most enjoyable jobs that Ronny was working at was Great Plains Manufacturing, Ellsworth, Kan.
He was a member of the Assembly of God Church, Ellsworth and was actively involved in his church. He went to Men’s Group meetings, Sunday services and board meetings.
He enjoyed fishing, welding and camping. He also enjoyed spending time with his family, kids and grandkids/great-grandkids, but most of all with his wife Carol and dog Dakota.
He will be remembered for his sacrifices and triumphs that he made for his family. He was a great family man and always loved to help whenever asked. He would drop anything he was doing at all times to help his family and others. He also beat Melissa at any game they played together; they were both very competitive against each other.
He is survived by his wife Carol; kids Daryl Hall, Mike Hall (Gina), Christie Hay (Jason) and Jeff Hall (Melissa); 15 grandchildren; and 10 great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents; sister Joyce Collier; son Timothy Hall; and nephew Kyle Collier.
