Ronald (Ronnie) van Domselaar was born in Montevideo, Uruguay in 1934. He married Luz, the love of his life in 1953 and moved to New York City in 1965. He traveled the world and enjoyed wonderful vacations with his family. His life revolved around his family and wife.
Ronnie leaves behind four children: Leslie, Sylvia, Monica and Alejandro.
Ronnie was a proud grandfather to nine grandchildren: Leslie, Philip, Stephanie, Danielle, Jessica, Morgan, Ivy, Alyssa, Jonathan and nine great-grandchildren.
Ronnie passed away on November 10, 2017 in his home surrounded by his wife of 64 Years and immediate family after his battle with Alzheimer’s. Ronnie’s life was altered only in the last few years by this terrible disease. We find comfort in that he lived a long and productive life full of travel adventures, symphonies, family gatherings and many, many wonderful memories. He was loved and will be deeply missed! The family chose to have a private ceremony and his ashes will be scattered per his wishes.
The family asks that any donations be made to the Fisher Center for Alzheimer’s Research Foundation in Ronald van Domselaar’s name to help end this terrible disease.
