Ron passed away at home peacefully surrounded by his family after a two-year battle with ALS at the age of 72.
Ron was the first child of Edward “Eddie” and Theresa Muszynski; born at St. Joseph’s Healthcare Centre on August 24, 1951. The Muszynski family grew with the addition of Ron’s sister Lynne (Rich) a few years later.
Ron made lifelong friends from his years as a student at Michael Power High School and later at Western University, where he graduated from King’s College in 1972.
Ron met Mary Elaine through her brothers John and Michael Fitzpatrick. Ron and Mary Elaine were married in 1977 and eventually settled in Lorne Park. As Ron often said, he and Mary Elaine made a great team.
Ron followed in the footsteps of his father and became a new home builder, establishing Ravensbrook Homes in the 1980s. He won the Mississauga Urban Design Award in 1998 for his role in building the Garden Homes of Lorne Park. Ron took great pride in his work. He was well respected in the industry and ran his business with honesty and integrity.
Ron, however, was most proud of his three children: Kristin (Matt), Lauren (Phil), Jaime (Marc); and his grandchildren Gwen, Paige, and Austin. Ron was a very involved father and Dziadzia. He was a kind, gentle man with a strong moral compass who also knew how to have fun. He was a golfer and member at Credit Valley Golf and Country Club for decades. He enjoyed a good party (as long as he did not have to stay out too late) and loved being around his family. Ron will be missed by everyone who was lucky enough to have known him.
Ron’s family would like to thank the volunteers at the ALS Society of Canada, the staff at the Sunnybrook ALS Clinic, and the caregivers from Home and Community Care Support Services Mississauga who have supported them through this journey.
Friends may call at the Turner & Porter Peel Chapel, 2180 Hurontario St. (N. of QEW), Mississauga, on Sunday April 21, 2024, from 1 pm - 5 p.m. A Service will be held in the Chapel on Monday April 22, 2024 at 11 a.m. Reception to follow.
