Obituary For William Ronald North
William Ronald North, Sr., age 77 of Richlands passed away peacefully with his family by his side on Tuesday evening, June 14, 2022. Ronnie was born on March 13, 1945 in Richlands to the late Rommie Otis and Mary Melton North. He is also preceded in death by his brothers, Edward, Joe, Leon, Jake, Durwood, Robert, Claude “Punch”, and RO, Jr. North; sisters, Rebecca Melton, Peggy Thompson and Mary Elizabeth Stephens. Ronnie is survived by his loving and faithful wife of 56 years, Rebecca Ann North; son, William “Bill” R. North, Jr, of Richlands, NC; daughter, Jenny R. Cubas, of Richlands, NC; grandchildren, Caroline R. and Cameron M. Cubas, of Richlands, NC. If there was anyone that gave of themselves on a daily basis it would have been Ronnie North. He was such a kind and caring man and was well thought of and respected in the Richlands community. Many people remember him for his BBQ Benefits and managing the local drive-in, “Toot-n-Tell It”. He was always there to lend a hand. He was honored to win the Legacy Award in 2015. Ronnie had a wonderful sense of humor and never met a stranger. He volunteered for many years at the Richlands Volunteer Fire Department. After many years of coaching softball for the high school, the softball field at Richlands High School was named after Ronnie. He had enjoyed many years as a custodian and teacher assistant at the high school. There are so many wonderful memories that Richlands has when they think of Ronnie North but will always come back to his kindness towards others. Although he is no longer with us, he will surely be missed by all who knew him. We will carry him in our hearts forever.
