Ronald J. Weprek, 64

Ronald J. Weprek, 64, took his final dirt nap Nov. 18, 2021, surrounded by his loved ones in Kalispell.

Ron was born Dec. 10, 1956, in Queens, New York, and grew up primarily in Georgetown, Connecticut. He contracted Covid-19, which progressed quickly due to underlying and ongoing health issues.

Ron is survived by his children Ariel, Amber, Mariah, Zane and Erynn; his stepchildren, Melanie and Justin; his ex-wives Tami and Catherine; his siblings, Cheryl, Debra, Ginger, Tony and Lisa; along with 11 grandchildren … so far.

Ron was preceded in death by his parents Cynthia and John, his sister Lynn, and his grandson Loic.

He was a jokester, an adventurer and, most of all, a big kid at heart. He loved life and all it entailed. He loved being outdoors spending time with family and friends. He loved to sing and dance and carry on, which is why we will do the same in honor of an absolute legend. There has never been and never will be anyone quite like him. And look down ... There’s something on your shirt …

Ron’s wishes were to be cremated. A celebration of life will be held on his birthday, Dec. 10, at the Smith Valley Grange Hall, 2902 U.S. Hwy. 2 W., Kalispell, MT 59901, from 2 to 5 p.m.
