Ron and Debbie have been married 47 years with 2 children, Steven, 43 years old and Lynette, 39 years old. Ron is extremely proud of his family and can’t wait to tell you how much he loves his wife. Ron’s hobbies, well anyone who knows Ron will quickly submit that Ron has obsessions, not hobbies. His fiercely competitive spirit has assisted Ron in his sales career as well as making him one of the premier fast pitch softball players in the Valley with the Clovis Cowboy’s softball team, among others. Golf is Ron’s passion of choice these days. However, you still may find him playing in the over 60 baseball league in the summer months or a slow pitch softball league. Ron and Debbie have been members of Belmont Country Club for 27 years and still enjoy playing golf together. They also are members of Sunnyside Baptist Church. Ron said, “I feel extremely blessed that God has led me through the trials of life and is allowing me to finish my working career with R. A. Davis Commodities.”
