Ronald Westrich

march 27, 1948 – august 11, 2024

Ronald Westrich

Ronald Francis Westrich, born on March 27, 1948, in Cincinnati, Ohio, will be fondly remembered for his friendliness and love for his family. Ron’s life was filled with moments of joy and connections with those around him.

Ron found enjoyment in traveling and loved to ride his bike. He treasured his bright red truck and cherished the simple pleasures of taking walks with his loved ones. As an active member of the First Baptist Church of Greenhills, Ron shared his faith through tutoring and home Bible Studies.

Ron was preceded in death by his wife Peggy (nee Baker) Westrich, his parents, Edward and Mary Alice (nee Dwyer) Westrich, and his siblings James (Mary) Westrich, Larry Westrich and Betty Westrich.

Ron is survived by his children Hannah and Hans Westrich, and brothers Ray (Elaine) Westrich and Paul (Cathy) Westrich, sister-in-law Dianne Westrich and many nieces, nephews, and friends.

Ron was fond of animals, and he found comfort in their presence, even during his time in a care facility. Family trips to Gatlinburg, Tennessee, especially those shared with his daughter Hannah, brought him immense joy, and created cherished memories. After retirement, Ron also enjoyed cruising. 

Ron and his family are grateful for the love and care that he received at the Sem Haven Retirement Community and Care Facility.
