He was born August 31, 1955, in Parkersburg, WV, a son of the late Ray E. Harvey and Ruth E. Harvey.

He was a 1973 graduate of Parkersburg High School and a 1978 graduate of West Virginia University with a degree in Business Management. Ron was a die-hard West Virginia Mountaineers fan all his life and was dedicated to cheering them on in sports. He worked for Murray Sheet Metal but had been enjoying gardening, golfing, and fishing in retirement for many years.

Weaver (Aaron) of Williamstown, WV; his three grandchildren, Zavion Hicks, Lorelai Weaver and Emersyn Weaver; as well as his brother, Ray E. Harvey, Jr. (Charlene) of Woodstock, GA.
