Ronald Theron VanBrocklin

Ronald was born January 2, 1946 in Pierrepont, a son to the late Ralph and Alice (Hewitt) Van Brocklin. He graduated from Colton-Pierrepont Central School and received his Electrical Engineering degree from Canton ATC. Ronald worked for Niagara Mohawk in Syracuse for a few years and spent 34 years at ALCOA in Massena, retiring as Senior Electrical Engineering Draftsman. He also taught night classes for electrical technician for St. Lawrence-Lewis BOCES.

Ronald was a member of the Potsdam ELKS Lodge #2074, Pierrepont Fire Department, the Quebec Brook Hunting Club and the Honey Marsh Club with his brothers and nephews Chad and AJ. He was an avid outdoorsman and loved to tinker and take things apart and to make maple syrup. He loved a good adventure and took pride in the fact that he’d been to the farthest points, N-S-E-W, in the United States and many points in between. His family request that you help fill his void by doing a small act for someone whenever you can.
