I first met Ron and Claus/buddies over thirty years ago when they arrived at our farm near Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada looking for Catfish. Our initial reaction was " why would anyone want to catch one let alone fillet it and actually eat it". The Assiniboine River here is full of nice Channel Cats.
After sampling some smoked Cat we soon changed our minds. Ron would often laugh ad say " our friendship started over a Cat fish". Our locale along the Assiniboine River was one of his favorite spots. Ron would often "limit out".
Ron would like to correspond over the phone or snail mail (sharing jokes). I couldn't convince him to check out emailing. He would send us the Iowa Outdoor Magazine and we would send back a popular rural newspaper highlighting old pictures and stories of rural western Canada.
Our family met Marilyn and enjoyed sharing stories and checking out her quilts and souvenir plates. What a talented lady!
Ron was truly an avid fisherman and pheasant hunter (Canada Geese also). His gardening skills were legendary.
Mutual friend, Ike Friesen, from Winnipeg and I visited Ron and Marilyn last summer. Ron was in failing health but we shared lots of stories/ experiences and made the best of our time together.
Ike and I visited the Spencer Fair. Ron toured us around for the first time a few years before. Our day at the Fair in 2017 wasn't the same without Ronnie.
We had the good fortune to meet nephew, Ed, and his mom. What a pleasure! Ron was proud of his nephews.
Ron appreciated everything anyone helped him with. I would reflect on the uniqueness of the Spirit Lake area. It has to be one of the best places to retire (so much to offer).
Our condolences to Marilyn, Ed and Family. Ron would sign off his parting conversations by saying that his trips to Canada were "gone but not forgotten".
Canadian friends Gary, Elaine, Lee, Ella Tully and Ike Friesen from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

Ron and Marilyn have been our neighbors for over thirty years, and what a wonderful couple! no one could out give Ron, weather it was produce from his garden, appreciation expressed, or another good deed done in return! Our girls loved to watch Ron clean fish and even snapping turtles, which made him quite nervous. one time the girls and I went fishing while their dad was at work, we caught a bucket of fish, the girls were so excited, but when we got home we did not know how to clean them! they decided to ask Ron if he would clean them, well he was not as excited as they were ,he told them put ice on them and your dad can clean them later, needless to say by time he got home the fish were quite stiff, but he managed! Ron always said he lived in the best neighborhood known to man, and it will never be the same RIP Ron! Brian and Carol Woods, Bethanie, Briel, Tiffany, Tyler

Not sure if Ron was happiest when he was handling a fishing pole, or a garden hoe or filling a small container after another hard night working a Friday fish fry but I'm sure he's with his friends in Heaven now doing all three.
My sincere condolences to the Claussen Family.

Ron was a good man, good heart and always did for others. It was an honor to know and be friends with such a man. Sadly I lost touch with him over the years. I still have a pic of us on the "Kabele's" seining crew from about 1997 or so. God speed my good man! Gary Mills

Ron was the guy you would see walking with his dog(s). The guy you would see helping at the VFW Fish Frys, the guy that grew a fantastic garden and always shared his bounty, the guy that just about everyone knew. We will all miss him.
