Ronald Lewis Tyrrell

Ronald Lewis Tyrrell, known fondly as Ron to his friends and family, left this world on December 19, 2023, at the age of 76. Born on November 22, 1947, in Allegan County, Michigan, Ron's life was characterized by his passion and dedication to his loved ones, his country, and his hobbies.

Ron's journey began as the beloved son of Warren and Margaret (Wellman) Tyrrell, who, along with his wife Sharon Tyrrell, his siblings Don Tyrrell and Reba Stephenson, and his son Jody Tyrrell, preceded him in death. His legacy continues through his son, Jeffrey (Marcia) Tyrrell, and his significant other, Mary Fueri, who will cherish his memory and continue to feel his influence in their lives.

Ron answered the call of duty and served in the Vietnam War. Following his service, he embarked on a career with the Viking Corporation, from which he retired after many years of committed service.

Ron's passions extended beyond his professional life. He had a keen eye for the beauty and craftsmanship of the past, which was evident in his love for all things antique. His particular fondness for Wheel Horse Garden Tractors and antique toys was more than a hobby; it was a way to connect with history and preserve the stories embedded within each treasured item.

His absence will be felt deeply, but the memories he created will serve as a beacon of joy and inspiration for all who had the pleasure of knowing him.

Following Ron's wishes, cremation has taken place, and there will be no formal service. Arrangements by Girrbach Funeral Home. To leave an online condolence visit www.girrbachfuneralhome.net.
