After one date, they became lifelong partners and shared seventy-three loving years together, raising five children, twelve grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren. Ron lost his beloved Doris in 2021 and spent his last four years missing her.

After graduating from high school, Ron and Doris were married on April 19^th 1952. Ron enlisted in the Navy during the Korean War and was proud of his service to our country. Two days after his discharge he was hired by Pratt & Whitney Aircraft in East Hartford and until his retirement in 1993, he helped to test and build state of the art jet engines. During their retirement years, Ron and Doris were essential in helping raise their grandchildren and developed life long bonds with them.
