He grew up living in many places but considered Lander, Wyoming his hometown where he met Carolyn Taylor, who became his beloved wife of 53 years. He worked in a number of different careers but began in the oilfields, shooting woodpeckers off the wooden derricks, but eventually became a driller. After that, Ronnie worked in various uranium mines in Jeffrey, Wyoming.

Following an injury in 1986, he attended Casper College and became an LPN. With his degree, he chose geriatrics as his focus and worked in various nursing homes providing care for the elderly residents.
