Ronald Gervason Obituary

Published by Legacy on Jul. 15, 2025.
Ronald C. Gervason, 72, died on June 26, 2025, after a brief illness.
Ron was born in Steubenville, OH, and grew up in Bergholz, OH. He attended Wittenberg University, where he majored in Geology, and did his graduate work at West Virginia University. He spent his professional life as a geophysicist, working in many states.
In 1971, he met Paulette at Wittenberg, and in 1974 they married. They spent their 54 years together loving their dogs, exploring the world, enjoying nature, gardening, and sharing food and drinks with good friends.
Ron had an inquisitive mind. He was kind, funny, an excellent cook, an avid reader, and a fiercely dedicated friend. He will be greatly missed.
