Born October 3, 1941, in Butler, PA, Ronald George Post was the son of the late William L. Post and Mona Jean (Watt) Post Burns.

Ron shared many great memories of his world adventures, stories about his lifelong friends, Steve and Britt Williams and his travels with his beloved wife, Lynda Kay. “Poppy Posty” also assured his granddaughter, Whitley Williams during his last moments with us that he would be rocking his great granddaughter, Sophie in his arms when he arrived to heaven.
