Ronald E. Kinne 63 of Cahokia, IL., born January 6, 1962 in East St. Louis, IL., passed away on July 13, 2025 in Mercy South Hospital.
He loved to fish, hunt, golf and was always outdoors. He had so many friends that he cared about, he would make his rounds and check on them daily. He would start at six or seven in the morning and would call if they lived out of town, he was always worried about his buddies. He loved his family with all his heart, especially Rj and Jordan. He would do anything for them and they had a special place in his heart. He would talk crap about everyone but still loved them and had memories of everyone, always telling it how it was. He coached baseball for years at the Cahokia Khoury League and his teams loved him. He loved his Blood Brothers and shared there life together. He will be missed.
He is survived by his wife, Angie Bollinge Kinne; sons, Rj (Becky) Kinne and Jordan Kinne; brother, Donald (Denise) Kinne; sister, Edith (Fred) Gentry; grandchildren, Colt, Ziggy, Copelan, Ivory and Abram. nephews, Donny Ray, Brandon (Amenda), Zack and Logan; niece, Rhanda (Jerod) Meier; great nephews, Carter and Caden.
