Derek Ronning Obituary
It is always difficult saying goodbye to someone we love and cherish. Family and friends must say goodbye to their beloved Derek Ronning (Vermillion, South Dakota), who passed away at the age of 56, on December 17, 2024. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Derek Ronning to show support.
Though Derek may no longer walk beside us, his memory will forever be enshrined in the fabric of the lives of those Derek touched, a beacon of light guiding us through the darkness. In his absence, his spirit lives on — a gentle whisper in the breeze, a ray of sunlight on a cloudy day, a reminder that love knows no boundaries.
He is survived by: his parents, Robert and Judy of Montevideo; his sister Melissa (Chad Eichhorst); his nephew Matthew Eichhorst (Alexis Olson); his great-nieces and great-nephews, Alekzander, Paislee and Zachary Eichhorst (Kayla); and also, Blakely and McKendry.
A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, January 4th 2025 at 1:00 PM at 820 N Dakota St, Vermillion, SD 57069.
In lieu of flowers the family prefers memorials to the Vermillion Police Dept,, Fire Dept., or Dispatch.
