Beloved son of Velma Stewart and Carald C. Phillips. When his widowed mother remarried Reuben Monsees, he had a beloved Dad for life. Brother of Mala Culver. At 27 inches long he held the record of being the longest baby born in Fresno County. Beloved husband of Phyllis for 51 years. Daddy to Melissa and Kelly Johnson, Monique Valdez, and Troy and Kattrina Monsees. Papa to Craig, Gianna and Jenna Johnson, Ethan, Hayden, Maddison and Kanyon Monsees. And his beloved cat Daisy. He grew up in Sunnyvale and attended Fremont and Mountain View High Schools. If there was a sport to be played, Ron was the captain. He spent his career at Westab and the Ford Motor Plant. A long time resident of San Jose. He loved Doo-Wop music, Western movies, the 49ers, Giants and the Warriors. The mere mention of a trip to Reno would make his eyes light up. The family would like to express their heartfelt thanks to the Kaiser Hospice team for their wonderful care. No services will be held.
