Ronnie was born November 9, 1957, in Anderson, Ind., to Billy Graham and Virginia Crouch. He left this life August 20, 2014.

Even though life was difficult for him growing up, he was not hardened by it. He had a love for children that could not be matched. He would immediately love them and entertain them with magic tricks, games and jokes. He also cared deeply about the disabled, homeless, elderly and the forgotten ones. He would give his last dime to anyone who needed it.

Ronnie attended school in Anderson, Indiana, and joined the Army in March 1979, serving until 1983. He always said it was the best and worst job he ever had but was proud of his accomplishments.

He was united in marriage to Geannette Stricker July 24, 1993, in Tulsa, Okla.

Ron worked for Advance-Pierre and was very devoted to his job. He was a motivator and jokester (at times), making teamwork a priority. He loved all sports and was a trivia expert on them all. He was a diehard OU and Thunder fan, but his Indiana roots led back to the Colts.

Survivors include his wife, Geannette; mother, Virginia Graham, of Anderson, Indiana; daughter, Kaylee Graham of Tulsa, Okla.; three grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; brothers, Randy Bertram of Anderson, Ind., and Danny Graham and his wife Keli of Broken Arrow, Okla.; sisters, Shawn Carpenter of Lake Forest Park, Wash., and Becky Graham of Anderson, Ind.; one stepson; and numerous nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by a brother, Doug Graham, and his father, Billy.

Ron always wanted to win the lottery so he could open an orphanage. With children being such a big part of who he was, he would have requested memorial contributions be made to YWCA crisis center or any children’s fund with Ladusau-Evans Funeral Home custodian of funds.
