He was born February 2, 1963, in Kansas City, Kansas to Jim and Lois (Spencer) Wethered.
He was a correctional officer at the Western Correctional Center in Cameron, Missouri.
His hobbies included crafting beautiful custom chainmail jewelry, investing himself in nostalgic video games, and enjoying a bountiful genre array of music. He held high interest in history, space, and Irish/folk customs and culture. He frequented the renaissance and enjoyed immersing himself in role play and fantasy. Imagination was in his nature.
Ron was known for his extroverted personality, commanding energy, and expressive laughter. He used his natural sense of humor as a sense of purpose to bring joy and a smile to anyone he met.
