He was surrounded by his loving wife, Rita Francis (Mickey), and their six children, Lynn Adams (Marc), Elizabeth Wallis, Chris Belton (Sherry), Colleen Clynch (Kevin), Susan Belton, and John Belton (Penny). Ronald's journey was eased by the compassionate care of the hospice staff, for which his family remains deeply grateful.

He was a beloved grandfather to Ryan, Justin, Dani, Greg, Christy, Kevin, Lou, Dillon, Lyndon, Grady, Sean, Spencer, Michael, Tia and Liv and a great-grandfather to Ella, Jack, Hannah, Auston, Quincy, Owen, Grace, and Cooper.

Ron led a rich and adventurous life.  He was known for his love of giving and receiving hugs, his passion for flying, sports cars, painting, and running, as well as his memorable performances as the magician "Belton the Magnificent" and his fiery Jane Fonda impersonations.

Ron's positive spirit endured until the end, as he faced his last days with grace and good humor. He left this world a better place, leaving a legacy of love, friendship, and warm hugs that touched the lives of many.
