Ron Makelke

August 27, 1931 - February 3, 2025

Ron Makelke, a lifelong beacon of positivity, has sadly passed away. Born in 1931 in Dickinson, North Dakota, to parents June and John, and alongside his siblings Marion and Darlene, Ron's early years were filled with family and laughter.

After proudly serving four years in the US Navy on the USS Mountrail, Ron dedicated 50 years to a fulfilling career in the grocery industry, mostly with Lucky Stores. His work ethic and cheerful demeanor made him a favorite among his colleagues.

Ron's personal life was as rich and joyful as his professional one. He was a devoted husband to Sherri, with whom he had two children, Lynn and Ron Jr. (Bud), and later to Pamela, who he married in 1995. Ron's passions included golfing, where he played 9-18 holes every weekday morning, followed by a two-mile walk with his dogs, always making time to chat with friends and strangers alike. He also loved restoring old El Camino trucks and riding motorcycles.

Ron will be remembered for his unwavering positivity and the deep care he showed for everyone in his life. His absence will be deeply felt by his family and all who knew him. Rest in peace, Big Guy. We love you.
