   Ronald E. Meyer, 79, unexpectedly died at his home in Lomira, on December 13, 2022, and went to his forever heavenly home with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.    Ronald (Ron) E. Meyer was born on May 20, 1943, in Chicago, IL, to Matthew and Augusta (Walters) Meyer.   On May 1, 1981, he was united in marriage to the love of his life Annette Pribnow Neitzel at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, Town of Lomira.

He was an avid Wisconsin sports fan, especially the Packers, Brewers and Badgers, and never missed a Nascar race. But his absolute pride and joy in life were his two youngest grandchildren that made his smile even bigger the last few years. His days were brighter when cooking or playing games with Makena, who he called princess or his little pumpkin and when racing cars or playing catch with Dawson, who he called Buddy and who will always be Grandpa’s little boy.   Ron will be dearly missed by his wife, Annette; children, Brian (Danielle) and Amy (Heidi); five grandchildren, Brock, Dustin, Caitlin, Makena and Dawson; siblings, Matthew (Sally) Meyer, Mary Collins, Anita Odekirk and William (Mary) Meyer; father-in-law, Reuben Pribnow; brothers-in-law, Ronald Pribnow, Rodney (Dee) Pribnow, Ralph (Donna) Pribnow, Randall (Anita) Pribnow; sisters-in-law, Audrey (Randy) Greene, Arlette (Marv) Lindert, and Arlesse (Dave) Groth; additionally many nieces, nephews and friends.    He was preceded in death by his parents, Matthew and Augusta Meyer; and mother-in-law, Arlene Pribnow.   Funeral services for Ron Meyer were held at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, Town of Lomira with Rev.
