Ronald Eugene Larson, 59, of Rocky Point left this earth unexpectedly and way too soon on Tuesday, December 22, 2015.

He was born August 20, 1956 in Wilmington, the son of the late Oscar Eugene Larson and Joyce Larson Newell.

Ronald is survived by his wife of 40 years, Sandra Sauls Larson; daughters, Jennifer Larson and Tonya L. Woods (Michael); grandson, Gabriel Larson; sisters, Dorothy Martin (David), Jackie Riley (Steve), Wilma Larson and Linda Newell; brother, Willie Larson (Ginny); many nieces, nephews and extended family.

Ronald was a member of Calvary Chapel Community Church where he served not only as a deacon, but as Pastor Tony's right hand man. By career Ronald was a custom cabinet builder, a profession he loved and excelled in. Bowling was important in Ronald's life. He was a member of USBC Bowling Association and was a coach for youth bowling leagues.

Ronald was a loving husband and devoted daddy, granddaddy, brother and friend. He loved his church and served his Lord, Jesus Christ on a daily basis. He always had a smile on his face, a helping hand stretched out, and a heart ready to show the love of Christ within him. Ronald's departure from this earth leaves a huge void in our lives and empty place in our hearts.
