Ronald G. Wheeler

Ronald Gene Wheeler, age 63, passed away Thursday, July 21, 2022.

Ron was born December 7, 1958 in Des Moines, Iowa to Lawrence and Mildred (Guile) Wheeler.

He attended Lincoln High School and proudly served in the United States Army.

He looked forward to his corn stand every year on Euclid. He loved the people he met and enjoyed seeing them year after year when they would stop by. He was a bilingual translator on the movie set of the Titanic. This would lead him to his starring role in the Titanic. He was quick witted and always made people laugh.

He was preceded in death by parents Millie and Larry Wheeler, and his niece Cassandra Vargus.

Ron is survived by his sisters Sheree Wheeler, Lisa (Jack) McNeeley, Christine (John) Hoskins; his brothers Mark Wheeler, Matt (Raynee) Wheeler; a daughter Taja Dockery; and three grandchildren Phoenix, Griffin, and Madison.

A private family viewing will be held on Saturday, July 23rd, followed by cremation. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. Please check back for more details.

For those wishing to express sympathy, the family encourages you to make a contribution to his daughter Taja Dockery in care of Christine Hoskins.
