Ronald E. "Ronnie" Mohalick Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Ronald E. “Ronnie” Mohalick, 73, passed away late in the morning on Sunday, February 7, 2021 after battling the lasting effects of Covid-19 and prior conditions. Ron, of Bourbonnais, IL and formerly Wilmington, IL, was born on April 22, 1947 in Lockport, IL to parents Raymond and Mildred L. (Wilson) Mohalick. After serving in the United States Army as a helicopter mechanic in Korea he began a long career of factory work, and eventually joined Local 9 of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. Ronnie contributed bravely to any community he joined, including serving as a volunteer firefighter in Shorewood, IL. Eventual retirement from IBEW gave Ronnie the time to pursue his many hobbies and passions. For many years, he was a member of the New Lenox Sportsmen's Club, where he enjoyed camping, fishing, bird watching and sharing breakfast and time on the paddle boat with his grandchildren. At home, he enjoyed cooking, painting and playing card games and dominoes. On long weekends, he and his wife visited with his in-laws, John and Dorie Bollino, at their lake home in Neoga, IL. to go target shooting and enjoy time outdoors. Over the years, Ron built quite the impressive collection of both vinyl records and science fiction films. All those that knew him understood that he was quick to laugh and slow to anger, appreciating each experience for what it was. He is survived by his spouse, Mary Ann (Windell) Mohalick of Bourbonnais, IL; two daughters, Ronette (Donald) Schuck of Braceville, IL. and Bridgette (Bill) Root of New Port Richey, FL; one son, Scott (fiancé Christina Larson) Mohalick of Fort Atkinson, WI; stepson Curtis (Christy Lawson) Forsythe of Coal City, IL; one sister, Terrie (Micheal) Davis of Joliet, IL; one brother, Raymond (Fay) Mohalick of Sumter, SC; and nine grandchildren, Haley and Madyson Schuck, Brittany Peterman, Zack and Shelby Root, Amber and Morgan Mohalick, and Zach and Kaelyn.

Ron is preceded in death by both parents, brother-in-law John Bollino, stepmother Anna (McGowan) Mohalick and her daughter Rosemary Merriman.Cremation rites have been accorded and a memorial service will be held at a later date.
