Ronald G. Maggi
September 2, 1935 ~ March 23, 2012
March 29, 2012

Our father and husband, Ronald G. Maggi, 76, Troy, Montana, passed away Friday, March 23, 2012, in Libby. He was born September 2, 1935 in San Francisco, California to Eugene and Myrtle (Peterson) Maggi. He was raised in Bonners Ferry, where his parents made their home with their five children. 

 

He enlisted in the Unites States Army after high school, and served four years until his honorable discharge. He then returned to Bonners Ferry where he met and married Sandra A. Nyre. They had been married for 50 years.

 

In 1968, Ron and Sandra moved to Troy, where they raised their two children, Tobi and Elaine.

 

Ron was willing to give most things a try at least once. He grew a variety of plants and flowers in his yard. He enjoyed wood working, and was an avid reader. He worked in and enjoyed the outdoors his entire life.

 

He had a well known propensity to live his life his own way, yet there was a soft side just below the surface of his gruff exterior that came through at the right time.

 

Ron was blessed with the love and admiration of his family and friends. His laughter, his character, his sway will be deeply, deeply missed.

 

Ron’s family would like to invite friends and family to stop by their home, 92 Waterfront Road, Troy, at 1 p.m. Saturday, March 31, to share memories of Ron with them.
