Ronald was an exceptionally gifted man.  In life, he learned the trade of commercial building painting.  Ronald had an eye for detail, an incredible work ethic, took great pride in his work and a love for his trade.  Those abilities led him to be one of the most talented painters in his field of expertise for over fifty years.  Ronald's passion though in life was his family.  Ronald Darnell was a loving father to his eight children.  Ronald's greatest joy in life was the bonds he created with each of his nineteen grandchildren.  They meant everything to him and he held a unique and special place for each one of them in his heart.  He had great taste in music and loved to listen to classic rock and The Beatles on his surround sound stereo system.  He also had a love for hamburgers, military aircraft and had a rock collection of fossils and crystals.  Ron was an avid Dallas Cowboys fan but, mostly he loved his family and especially loved his grandchildren.
