Ronald Pendleton Obituary, Death – At the age of eighty-two, Ronald L. Pendleton quietly went away at home on Sunday, December 10, during his last moments, watching the comforting scenes from Gunsmoke. He was born in Ney, Ohio, on May 7, 1941; Ney is in Defiance County. His life served as an example of tenacity, reflection, and contentment in the small things in life.
Ronald leaves behind a legacy of tenacity and selflessness that makes it impossible to divorce his story from it. One of the most important things in Ronald’s life journey was the absence of his father, Ronald Pendleton, who had bravely served our country during World War II and died in Italy in 1945. Ronald was the son of Ross Pendleton and the late Agnes (Pendleton) Mack. Despite the severe bereavement he had gone through, Ronald never forgot his father.
Over the years, he has proudly and reverently regarded his father’s legacy and sacrifice. Gunsmoke’s familiarity brought Ronald comfort in his final moments, demonstrating his appreciation for the small pleasures in life and the memories he treasured. His home transformed into a haven filled with the echo of a life well-lived and of times spent with loved ones. As we say our goodbyes, Ronald L. Pendleton is in our prayers and thoughts.
May we never forget him for being a quiet strength figure as much as for his love of Gunsmoke. His life is an example of the resilience that comes from experiencing loss as well as the appreciation of the simple joys in life. May Ron L. Pendleton at last find peace and quiet. Your legacy of resilience and remembrance will live on in the lives of the people you touched.
