RONALD CARLSON
July 28, 1951 - October 21, 2020
He is survived by his wife Vicky and his children, Aaron and Alix. He will also be sadly missed by his sisters, Carol, Joan, Wendy, Kim and their families. As well as his sister-in-law Linda and her family.
Ron was born and raised in Teulon, MB. He grew up on the farm and helped with everything from milking cows to combining in the fields. When he was young, his Dad took him out hunting and he was hooked. He loved to hunt and proudly took down deer, moose, elk and geese. He made the best deer sausage you could imagine. He also had a great love of horses, and drove his chariot at many rodeos and stampedes throughout Manitoba. He was even brave enough to drive in the Suicide Ben Hur in Morris. He never won the rifle, but he sure had a lot of fun trying.
He could often be heard cheering at his children's many activities. Aaron's Tae Kwon Do and Alix's Ringette were two of his favourites. As was going camping with his family. Many nights were spent around the campfire having a bubbly and making smores.
Ron worked at Manitoba Hydro for many years and retired in 2007. After retirement, he worked temporarily at several different jobs, until health concerns prevented him from doing so. He was also a very talented carpenter, and did all of his home renovations by himself.
Thank you to the staff at St. Boniface hospital Unit 5E for their kindness and compassion during his last few days.
There will be a private family service at a later date.

To Vicki and all the Carlson family we offer our condolences. We were so sad to hear of Ronnie’s passing. We remember Ronnie as a fun loving all around “good” guy. So many happy memories: the rodeos, the socials and the famous Gunton Hunters Ball. It is so sad that due to COVID friends and family are unable to come together to share memories and celebrate Ronnie's life but know that we are thinking of you all at this difficult time - Posted by: Sherryll and Marty (Friends) on: Oct 25, 2020

Such good memories of Ronnie and I horse racing on the back 40 at the farm in the Greenwood area. Ronnie on His tall grey, Blaze and me on Yellow Dog. We charged up and down the flat, dirt roads having a blast. Just good simple fun as we never cared who won and usually we called it a tie! Miss you bro.

Joan, Carol and Families, I am soooo sorry for your loss! I remember Ronny as a very peaceful, soft spoken, very well liked by all. I remember Ronny in high school, so good looking and calm and liked by the girls. I remember Ronny on the farm such a hard worker and so involved with his family. Your family was so proud of Ronny and the world was a better place with him here. I could not contact you by phone to give my condolences so went here instead. Please call me at 250-215-6534 if you want to talk. I’m here for you all. Valerie Charison - Posted by: Valerie Charison (Friend) on: Oct 24, 2020
