Passed away in the early hours of the morning on Thursday, July 13, 2017. Ronald was the loving husband of Cheryl Docksteader. He was the cherished father of Tara Marshall, and Ron (Kim) Docksteader, and the father-in-law of Travis Marshall. Papa had a special place in his heart for his 6 grandchildren, Jaylynn, Cameron and Brea Marshall, and Annabelle, Magenta, and Grayson Docksteader. Ronald was the beloved brother of Pat Pilon and Joyce Sigrist (Arno). He was predeceased by his sisters Betty Brownley and Shirley Hugget, his brother Harvey Docksteader, and brothers-in-law Robert Pilon, and Rufus Brownley. Fondly remembered by his many nieces and nephews. He will be missed by many friends, especially Wendy.
Dad considered everyone he met a friend. He was the Sanford of Parkwood Gardens. He collected scrap and everyone was always on the lookout for him. Reminiscing was one of his favourite past times and would gladly talk for hours to anyone that would listen.
We would like to invite everyone to a Celebration of Life at 44 Gateway Drive, Guelph, on Saturday, July 22, 2017 at 2:00 p.m. Please come share your stories and laughter.
