Ron Wilson

August 13, 1949 - May 31, 2019

Ron died at age 69 of pulmonary fibrosis May 31 after his doctor predicted that this would happen. We moved to clean air New Mexico and Ron thrived for quite a while, but his doctors said there was no cure.

Veteran Story

US Army
1969-1971
SP/5
General Vehicle Repairman
Battalion Maintenance supply clerk

Stationed:  South Korea

Enlisted in 1969 for Warrant Officer Helicopter pilot training for Vietnam, but never made it to Nam, or even into the training program due to a glitch. Wound up in Korea of all places, spent 22 months there and got out of the Military. My hats off to all those who have given their all for our country. I knew Terry Dyer in High school,and was shocked by his death. Like I said my hats off to those who served, God Bless them all! And thanks to the alumni association for all your good work.

I am very sorry to hear of Ron's passing.  He was my brother, Chris Plavsa's, best friend and my first love in high school.  Although we had not been in touch for years, he did reach out to me a few years ago and we shared some lovely memories.  My condolences to his family.
