Ronald Gregory Korbal, 66, of Plover, found peace on April 10, 2013, at home while under the care of his family and Ministry Home Care Hospice.
He was born on May 27, 1946, at home in Stevens Point, the son of the late Gregory and Lavern (Scheski) Korbal. He married Carol Golla on Nov. 27, 1969, at St. Mary of Mt. Carmel Catholic Church in Fancher. The marriage ended in divorce.
Ronald farmed for a number of years, worked for Soo Line Railroad, Steel King and did construction work, which he enjoyed.
He lived with a passion for life, giving a helping hand when he could; he was a great talker and enjoyed sharing stories with family and friends. He enjoyed spending time with his children, grandchildren and great-grandkids. His hobbies included hunting, fishing, gardening, playing cards and gambling. He was also an avid sports fan, especially NASCAR.
Survivors include his four children, Marlene (Dennis) Haessly of Amherst, Constance Ostrowski (Charles) of Lynden, Jeffrey (Jennifer) Korbal of Arpin, and Becky (Thomas Jr.) Higgins of Almond; 14 grandchildren, Tina Trelka, Cristin and Chris Higgins, Joseph, Samantha and Jeremy Ostrowski, Kevin Platta, Jesse, Kendra, Megan, Melissa, Morgan, Madison and Matthew Korbal; three great-grandchildren, Trinity, Selena and Tavion; two sisters, Shirley (Dave) Groshek of Auburndale, and Elaine (Eugene) Pelot of Stevens Point. He is further survived by nieces, nephews and many other loved relatives and friends.
In addition to his parents, Ronald was preceded in death by his grandparents, Martha and Leo Scheski; uncle and aunt, Leo and Sophie Betro; and granddaughter, Cassandra Ann Trelka.
He will be greatly missed by those who knew and loved him.
