Ronnie Reno Culverson Sr.

Ronnie Reno Culverson, Sr. was born on June 30, 1945, in Pioneer, Louisiana to Emily Culverson. She later married Willie Preston, the only father that he knew, who raised Ronnie as his own. While attending Southern University in Baton Rouge--he received a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education--he met the love of his life, Ruth McGaffey, whom he married after his graduation. To their union was born 2 beautiful children: Chantrell Renee Culverson (born while he served in the US Army in Vietnam) and Ronnie Reno Culverson, Jr.

Ronnie's greatest joy and most important achievement was coming to know the Truth and Obeying the Gospel of Jesus Christ over 30 years ago when he was taught by Bro. Robert Harper and his wife Patsy. He continued on that path as a faithful member at Highland Heights Church of Christ until his death on November 30th, 2018. Even while he was a patient in various hospitals, he tried to share that Truth with the nurses who cared for him. He was ready to be with the Lord knowing that he had served faithfully and according to His word.

Ronnie's favorite pastime was photography, and he especially loved photographing flowers and nature. Having the opportunity to travel extensively, he took pictures of places and things that will always be a huge part of the wonderful memories we have of him.

He was preceded in death by his parents, and his son Ronnie Culverson, Jr.

Ron leaves to cherish his memories, his wife, Ruth Culverson; his daughter Chantrell Culverson McNeill (Kenneth), his granddaughters Kennady and Callee McNeill; his brother Robert Preston (Lois); Sisters-in-law, Antoinette Henry and Rosa Fields; his favorite Aunt, Elsie Culverson; and a host of nieces, nephews, relatives, friends and a loving church family.
