Ronald Wnenkowski

 

Ronald was a lover of classic cars, Elvis, and a good Polka. He started a landscaping/snow plow business after he graduated from Glenbard West High School, but that came to an end when he suffered a stroke at 29, leaving him half paralyzed. He lived to be 73 and if anyone knew him, then they knew he was a cantankerous man, feisty like a starved bear that loved his mother dearly. He leaves behind a sister, a niece, and a nephew. Cards and Letters can be sent to his sister Bonnie Wnenkowski at: P.O. Box 574, Moody, TX 76557.
