Ronald "Ron" Kulesza's Obituary
Ronald "Ron" Kulesza, age 83 of Mantua, passed away Saturday, December 14, 2024 at the Avenue at Aurora surrounded by his family. Ron was born October 23, 1941 in Cleveland, Ohio to the late Richard and Dorothy (Tutay) Kulesza. After his graduation from Garfield Heights High School he honorably served his country in the United States Army and in 1961, he married his beloved wife of 63 years, Charlene (Granstaff) Kulesza.

Ron is survived by his wife Charlene; sons Jeff (Kim) and Mark (Deborah), both of Mantua; grandchildren Katelin (Ryan) Kelly, Joshua Kulesza, Rachel McCulloch, Philip Kulesza, Jacob Kulesza and Brittiny Ashby; nine great grandchildren, and two sisters, Gayle (Giovanni) Graci and Janice (J.R.)
