Ron was born April 29, 1949 in Beverly, son of the late Phyllis (Dempsey) and G. Russell Werme. For many years he worked at National Grid and Chase Paper. Work, however was not what defined Ron. He and his wife Chris found joy in their children, grandchildren and family. Traveling together in their motorhome created prized memories together, especially a cross country trip to Montana. Closer to home you were likely to find Ron enjoying time on the front porch watching the birds or in the middle of the loving chaos of family gatherings by their pool in the summer or inside their warm home at Christmas. Ron was a big fan of all New England sports teams, adored his Yorkie “Toto” and always found time to spend with his grandchildren who will miss their beloved “Peeps” & “Grampie”. For the past several years Ron and Chris looked forward to their many cruises with his family. He and his wife Chris shared their home and love with more than 50 foster children over the years. Without question Ron’s legacy is that of a man who left a world better than the one he found. Ron will be remembered for his sharp wit and love of family. He will be dearly missed.
