Born on August 16, 1935, in Sandwich, Illinois, to the late Donald and the late Ada Hagood Heriaud. Ronald lived a life rich in experiences, kindness, and family ties. Ronald first married the mother of his children; Barbara and she preceded him in death in 1979 and then he married Sharon Kay Busker, she preceded in death on November 27, 2021.
Ronald dedicated over 46 years of his life to the profession of over-the-road truck driving, a career that allowed him to traverse the beautiful landscapes of America. During his travels, he made lasting memories that he cherished and passed down to his loved ones. His adventures were not just on the journeys, but in the connections, he made along the way.
He is survived by his beloved children, David Heriaud and his wife Angie of Bella Vista, Arkansas, and Diane Reese and her husband Russ from Edgar Springs, Missouri. Ronald's legacy lives on through his seven cherished grandchildren and three great-grandchildren, and companion and care giver Char Sedlack, along with many extended family members and friends who were fortunate to know him.
Ronald was a devoted member of the Family Motorcoach Association for many years, finding joy in traveling across America in his motorhome. He relished the time spent with his family, and his generous spirit and loyalty to his loved ones defined his character. Those who knew him will remember him as a kind and thoughtful man who always put family first.
Ronald was also preceded in death by his sister; Joan.
As we celebrate the life of Ronald Dean Heriaud, let us carry forward his legacy of kindness, generosity, and the love he had for those around him. In every journey he took, he brought a little more light into the world, and he will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege to know him.
