Ronald Schmerber Obituary

It is always difficult saying goodbye to someone we love and cherish. Family and friends must say goodbye to their beloved Ronald Schmerber of Elgin, Illinois, born in Cincinnati, Ohio, who passed away at the age of 78, on June 22, 2021. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Ronald Schmerber to show support.

He was predeceased by: his parents, Edward Schmerber and Barbara Schmerber. He is survived by: his wife Lois Kamphoefner; his children, Anna Ghiotti, Rebekah Schmerber (Jay Bethard), Sarah Schmerber and Daniel Schmerber (Kimberly); his granddaughters, Mary and Lucy Ghiotti; his aunts, Katherine Heimbach and Anne Nieman (Howard); Stephen Nieman.

When mobility and Covid made socializing a challenge, his dogs were his loyal companions, and his daily prayers and hymns sustained him and gave him peace (he also found great company in Judge Judy, Perry Mason and collegiate softball).

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Shriners Hospitals for Children or the Wingman Foundation.

Karen Borgmann wrote a sympathy message

“I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Uncle Ronny. He is survived by what seems to be a fine legacy. Although I didn't get to know him very well, I'll always remember the time he came to Cincinnati while I was at Grandma Schmerber's cutting grass and we all went to Skyline and had a great time. He was jovial and had the kindest eyes. Take care, family.”
