Ron went to be with the Lord on Wednesday, February 17th. He was 81 years old. His family is grateful that he passed peacefully in the home he built in Broken Arrow, the town he loved and lived in for over 50 years. Ron was born March 14, 1934 in Fredonia, Kansas, to Carl William and Dorothy (Bell) Wing. He attended school in Fredonia where he graduated from high school before he continued his education at Pittsburg State Kansas. Ronald became a Civil Engineer and was employed with the Corp of Engineers for 30 years. He retired from the Corp and went on to work as an independent contractor and then for 10 years with the City of Broken Arrow as a Civil Engineer. Ronald married Sue Johnson Little in 1978, creating an immediate family with five teenagers. Following Sue’s passing in 2008, Ronald met Zelda Cazzell and the two were married in a Grove, Oklahoma wedding ceremony in June 2009. Ron and Zelda enjoyed bowling together in leagues and tournaments. Ronald was a wonderful husband and father. He loved spending time with his family and cherished the opportunities when they all gathered together. He was a very involved father, coaching all his children in various sports and teaching them valuable life lessons. Ronald was an avid golfer and bowler. When he wasn't on the golf course, he enjoyed working in his wood shop, watching westerns on TV, playing scrabble, cards and working crossword puzzles. Because Ron was active in and loved his church, the family requests donations be made to the First United Methodist Church at 112 E. College St., Broken Arrow, Ok 74012.
