Ronald Sweat

George “Ron” Sweat, 71, of East Springfield, Ohio, passed away Saturday, February 16, 2019, after fighting a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer.

Ron was one of seven children to the late Malcolm and Sarah (Chetok) Sweat. He was preceded in death by three brothers, Lee, Ralph and Jack Sweat; and a sister, Wanda Schoonover.

Ron was the loving husband of Darlene (Tulodzieski) Sweat; father of Corey (Lauren) Sweat; and grandfather of Colson Sweat. His two surviving siblings are Judy (Donald) “Dee” Griffith and Mike (Tina) Sweat.

Ron was an avid golfer his entire life. He enjoyed all sporting activities and his carpentry projects, but his utmost enjoyment came from his family. He was a devoted family man.

Ron served his country honorably in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War. He retired from Weirton Steel in 1992, then owned and operated Tee Bones Restaurant in East Springfield, OH, for 14 years.

Ron will be remembered by family and friends as generous, quick-witted and caring. He is the one who could keep the laughter continuing in the room.

There will be no visitation. As per Ron’s wishes, cremation arrangements have been entrusted to Everhart-Bove Funeral Homes, Richmond.
