Ronald Teran, 64, departed from us on December 27, 2023, with his devoted wife, Irene, children, and family members at his side. Ron was diagnosed with lung cancer in January of 2023. Despite this life-altering news, he showed incredible bravery, resilience, and determination. His unwavering positivity inspired all who knew him, and even in the face of adversity, Ron continued to put others first. His influence, kindness, love, and wisdom have shaped us all, and his legacy will live on through his children, 8 grandchildren, and the countless friends and extended family he cherished.
He was a veteran and served in the Marines and AirForce. His love for football, especially the Washington Commanders (Redskins), and his enthusiasm could be heard throughout the house. He had a good sense of humor and was quick with funny comebacks. He loved fishing, gathering with friends and family, and taking care of his grandchildren.
Ron is survived by his wife, Irene Teran; his daughter Amanda Teran Salas (Adam); his daughter Kimberly Cook (Victor); his daughter Christina Silva (Jose); his stepdaughter Sara Macias (Andrew) and his stepson Robert Rodriguez (Vanessa). He is also survived by 8 grandchildren, and his siblings Willie Teran Jr, Michael Teran and Sylvia McCall. He is preceded in death by his brother, David Teran, his mother, Genevieve, and his father, Willie.
