We are saddened to announce the passing of Ronal J. Kilgore, age 55, residing in Woodson Terrace, Missouri. Ron died suddenly on October 27, 2022, from a heart attack. He was the son of Donna (Weaver) and Ronal V. Kilgore, brother of James, uncle to Thorsun and N. Crei, and a devoted friend to many. His visitation will be on Saturday, November 12th, 10 am – 1 pm, at Collier's Funeral Home, 3400 North Lindbergh, St. Ann, Missouri. The funeral will immediately follow, 1 pm at Collier's, and interment will be at Laurel Hill Cemetery.

Ron grew up in Woodson Terrace, Missouri, and was active in marching band. At the age of 15, he suffered many physical injuries due to a vehicle accident. We consider ourselves extremely lucky to have had Ronnie here with us to enjoy forty "bonus" years together, especially the time spent with his younger brother, Jim.

Ron was a 1985 graduate of Ritenour High School, an avid golfer, and long-time umpire of local baseball games. He worked many years as an insurance agent and Sales Manager at Commonwealth, Reliable, and most recently Kemper, winning dozens of awards for sales excellence.

He was a great friend to many and always stepped up to help his friends and others in need. We could always count on Ronnie for a huge laugh and a reality check. He was a super-fan of musician, Pat Benatar, and loved the movie "Flashdance." He was a loving son, brother, uncle, and friend.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to a memorial fund, set up to benefit Ronnie's first great-nephew, due to make his appearance in April 2023:
