Ron was born in Oklahoma City to Joe and Gladys Geer to become part of a family of seven boys. As a baby his parents moved him and two older brothers to California, the Bakersfield area and the family eventually settled in Huntington Beach, Calif. where Ron attended and graduated from Huntington Beach High School in 1960. Ron’s passions, hobbies and life revolved around family, drag racing (boats and cars), NASCAR, classic cars and street rods. Ron met Jackie in Huntington Beach and they were married Sept. 28, 1985 in Las Vegas; they lived in the Huntington Beach - Westminster, Calif. area. In 1993, they moved to Lake Havasu City, where they fell in love with the area and bought their home. Ron continued his love of cars and bought his first street rod, a ’32 Ford HiBoy. Then he joined his car club “The Over The Hill Gang”. Eventually he traded the roadster for his ’56 Chevy. Oct. 2, 2014 Ron passed away suddenly in his home. Ron is survived by his wife of 29 years, Jackie; two brothers, Paul and Gaylen, their wives, Susan and Diane; nephews, Michael, David, Kinney and nieces, Kathy, Debbie, their families and many, many lifelong friends. “…Think of a time I made you laugh A story or joke I told in the past…” In lieu of flowers, please, donations to American Heart Association, the Diabetes Association or hospice would be much appreciated. Ron’s final gift was that of the gift of sight to an Arizona woman. So in Ron’s honor consider becoming a donor. Services were placed in the care of Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home & Crematory.
