Quietly, during the afternoon hours of Monday, July 13, God reached out and took the hand of his faithful servant Ron and carried him to his heavenly home where he is now fully healed of metastic melanoma cancer. Ronald was the second son of Ruth Shelley and Vernon Moring, born on April 11, 1947, in Petersburg. He was a resident of Petersburg all his life and graduated from the Petersburg school system. An Air Force veteran, he served on active duty (6994 Security Forces) in Turkey and Vietnam. He retired after 32 years of employment at Honeywell Inc. and then worked for the Bureau of Tourism in Petersburg. Ron was a man of great passions and love of all life. He loved his church, Washington Street United Methodist Church, its history and its spiritual and civic commitment. Nothing gave him greater pleasure than to walk you through its beautiful sanctuary and tell its history. He served his church well. He loved his city. His time at the Tourist Bureau gave him the outlet to let everyone he met know of its history, its revitalization and its promise for greatness. A people person, he never met a stranger. His warmth and ability to communicate made people who had only known him for five minutes tell him their life's story. Often these people continued to communicate with Ron, and felt as if they had known him, all of their lives as well. He had a great passion for photography, taking hundreds of pictures through out his lifetime. From the beauty of nature to the intrigue of people, he captured on film those things and everything in between. His life was also one of service to all things and people. His kitties he saved bear testament to this. Ron is survived by his wife and companion of 31 years, Cheryl Anne Sculthorpe-Moring; his brother, Donald H. Moring and wife, Kathy, of Prince George; nephew, Troy Moring and wif,e Donna; great-niece, Kaley; and great-nephew, Brady of Ford, Va.; his wife's parents, Betty and Duke Sculthorpe and family; also, many cousins and their families, beloved friends and neighbors.
