Ronald Gene Maish, age 76, and a resident of Warsaw, passed away on Sunday, Aug. 25, 2019, at 1:38 p.m. in Fort Wayne’s Lutheran Hospital.

Born on June 14, 1943, in Russiaville, Ronald was the son of Cloyd and Laura Reppert Maish. He was also a mirror image twin and the brother to Donald Eugene Maish and six other brothers. He was a graduate of Elwood High School in Elwood.

Ronald was married to Pearl Hall in 1979. The two would share 37 years together. Ron, as most knew him, was later married to Susan Robbins Creamer at Oak Grove Church in Warsaw. Pearl and Susan both survive.

Ronald was a hard worker. He worked for Gatke Corporation for many years and later for Flexaust. He was a member of the Moose Lodge in Warsaw and the Fraternal Order of Eagles in Alexandria. He enjoyed dancing and playing cards. He was well known for his good sense of humor and was very social. He rarely knew a stranger and was incredibly proud of his grandchildren, whom he loved dearly.

Those who survive with memories to cherish include his wife, Susan Creamer; daughters, Selina Maish (Richard Still), of Warsaw; Michelle (Jerry) Goble, of Warsaw; and Angela House, of Milton, Del.; and two stepchildren, Missy Rupe, of Warsaw; and Jeff (Kelly) Rupe, of Chesterton. Also surviving are seven grandchildren, Lucas, Abigail, Evan, Kaycie, Austin, Katrina and Roni; two step-grandchildren, Noah and Landon; three great-grandchildren; three brothers, Donald, Bill and Robert Maish; and a special friend, his dog Midnight.

He was preceded in passing by his parents; and four brothers, Victor, Junior, Larry and Lloyd Maish.

Friends may join family for a time of visitation and sharing at Titus Funeral Home, 2000 E. Sheridan St., Warsaw, on Tuesday, Sept. 3 from 10 a.m. to noon. Beginning at noon, Pastor Doug Lemon of Oak Grove Church, where Ron was a member, will officiate Ron’s funeral. Burial will take place later in Oakwood Cemetery, Warsaw.
