Ronald Marriage Obituary Ronald James Marriage, born to Joan & Warren Marriage on 3 March 1953 in Colorado Springs (CS) died on 1 Dec 2022 with wife Amy at his side in Macon, GA. Ron grew up in CS with his parents & 6 siblings, enjoying camping & hiking, & working & playing with a family of best friends. Ron attended Divine Redeemer, Sacred Heart, Garfield Elementary, & North Jr. High schools. He moved with his family to Florida & attended Ft. Lauderdale High, Broward Jr College, & Florida Atlantic University. Ron met Bernice Beatrice (Bebe) Childers while in college & working in construction with his brothers. Bebe & Ron's love led to their 32-year marriage & love for daughters Teri, Lisa, & Erin. The family remained in Ft. Lauderdale, active in Parkway Christian Church, where Ron played Capt. von Trapp in Parkway's Sound of Music production. Ron's rich baritone captured his role & his audiences. More than anything, aside from being a Clint Eastwood "twin" & from the many homes he & his brothers built throughout S. Florida, Ron was a Christ-centered family man, beginning with parents & siblings & later with his own family & their friends & with his church family, where he worked in youth ministry. Those who knew Ron knew a patient, kind, humble, hospitable, nonjudgmental, gentle & funny man. Ron was self-sacrificing & helpful, skilled, strong, calm, generous, loving & caring, goofy & wise. All who knew Ron loved Ron. After Ron lost Bebe to cancer in 2010, he paid great respect to her by finding new love & marrying Amy Robertson in 2012. Ron & Amy lived in Sunrise, FL until moving to Macon, GA, where he was again active in his church & relationships, from coworkers & family to neighbors & friends. Ron leaves behind his wife Amy, his daughter Lisa (John) Bowling & their 5 children, daughter Erin (Eric) Freeman & their 3 daughters, 3 stepsons, his brother Anthony & sisters Catherine (John) Hill & Suzanne (Bill) Wheeler, 10 nephews & 5 nieces.
