RONALD WILLIAM MORRISON
June 30, 1960 - April 19, 2021

After a tremendously courageous struggle to overcome the effects of the stroke he suffered 14 months prior, dad, husband, and grandfather, Ron Morrison, passed on April 19, 2021, survived by his daughter, Brynn, and with the love of his life, Kim, and his sons, Matthew, and Jared by his side.
We are still trying to figure out how to say goodbye, and the words have taken a very long time to come. None will ever be available to express the depth of how much Ron meant to all of us. Ron had a warmth, light-heartedness, and joviality that is unsurpassed, and a candid wit that left no room for interpretation. He was a sharp-shooter, who was eminently practical, honest, and made things happen when you were sure that they couldn't. Ron had the vision to see things both as they were, and to imagine and create brave new possibilities in both his entrepreneurial work in landscaping and renovations, and as our father, and Kim's husband. Ron had a generosity that knew no bounds - he consistently gave everything he had to his family, his friends, and his employees. We are so grateful to have been given the gift of the last year we had with him - his last, and most wonderful gift that he gave to all of us - that he fought so long and hard to be with us all before he decided it was time to move on.
The first of our tributes to Ron will be held outdoors on Thursday, August 12 from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at the St. Norbert Arts Centre. Offers to speak to Ron's memory are most welcome and warmly appreciated. An outdoor, formal celebration for all will begin at 5:00 p.m. Please join us in raising one to Ron at 6:00 p.m., with casual remembrance and light refreshments to follow.
