Ronald Elliott Moseson's Obituary
Ronald Elliott Moseson, a beloved and devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend died unexpectedly on Friday July 4, 2014, at the age of 71. He was born on October 8, 1942 in Tacoma, Washington. He graduated from Lincoln High School in 1960 and went on to attend Western Washington University.
He was in sales most of his life as he was a natural born salesman. It was a perfect job for someone who was such a people person. He always saw the good in everyone and it was not hard for everyone to see the good in him. He was so genuine. In 1980, Ron founded Remco Distributing and became a very successful business owner for thirty years until his retirement in 2010.
He met the love of his life, Beverly Allison, in 1960 at Sunnyside Beach. He showed up at her house the next day and needless to say, they have been together ever since and celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary this past December. They both felt so lucky to have one another. They had a very special and enduring love.
He was an incredibly loving father and grandfather, always encouraging and uplifting. He loved coaching and coached both his children for many years. He was a wonderful role model for not only his children and grandchildren, but for all the kids that were lucky enough to be coached by him.
Ron loved the game of golf. An avid golfer right up to the end, golfing eighteen holes the day before he passed. Thirty years ago, he started an annual golf trip to Arizona with three of his friends and every year the group got larger and eventually ended up some years with up to thirty guys. He loved organizing it and looked forward to it every year. He will be dearly missed by a countless number of golf buddies. He enjoyed many years and many friends as a member of Oakbrook Golf & Country Club.
He loved the many summers with his friends and family at his condo at Crescent Bar Resort and he enjoyed the past few winters at his home in Arizona that he purchased at retirement. He had a great sense of humor with a lightning quick mind. Always the jokester, he kept us smiling and laughing all the time. Remarkably thoughtful, helping so many people in so many different ways. He was a very proud man with more character than anyone I have ever known and was highly respected by all that knew him. He will be missed deeply. We love you, dad.
Ron is survived by his devoted wife Beverly; daughter Tammy and her husband Donnie Eaton; son Todd Moseson and his wife Teresa; grandchildren Brady, Tanner and Taylor Moseson; sister Linda and her husband Frank Poston. At Ron's request, a private memorial service will be held at Mountain View Funeral Home in Lakewood, Washington. A celebration of life party to be held at a later date. Online remembrances may be shared on the tribute wall. Please post comments and photos to celebrate Ron Moseson's legacy.
