Ron's Story
It’s been a short 50 years. After HS I went off to Chicago thinking I wanted to be an electrical engineer....not! Came back to GF and worked at the Anacnda Co. for a couple years then found my true calling, fireman. I started in Jan 1972 at GF Fire and retired in November 2001. In those years I was blessed with 2 wonderful children (Gayleen 41 and Erick 39).
Not so lucky in the marriage dept ( 2 failed). Spent a lot years single And in 1997 I met the woman I knew was the right one (Adina). We’ve been married 16 years now and life is good . Adina lived in Missoula working as an RN Director for St Pats Hospital. I moved immediately to Missoula on retirement and one year later took on a full time position as a Security Officer For ...Expand for more
St Patrick Hospital. Lots of stories I can’t tell from that career!
I’m pretty much retired now but engage my time in riding my Harley in this beautiful part of the state. We have a 1972 Olds Cutlass Convertible 442 that we’ve had for 16 years which I have been continually working on in that time (can’t have enough horse power). Hiking in the Selway. Some travel with my Adina ( more when she retires next September). And whenever I get a chance, hook a spin in a small airplane (Love to fly but gave up on a license ...to expensive for me!)
We had a new home built a year and a half ago and hope it will be our last stop. Now it’s time to enjoy retirement and the 12 grand kids and 1 great grand child.. All in all a good life so far.
