Ronald "Ron" Lawrence Oldham - Loving husband, father, and grandfather passed away September 3, 2021, after courageously living with Dementia, and battling cancer. Ron was born March 3, 1944, to Otho W Oldham, and Dollie L West in Comanche', Oklahoma. He was raised by Lewis and Ruth Thomas of Emmett. He graduated from Emmett High school in 1962 and earned his Business degree at Kinmen College in Washington. He retired from Selkirk Metalbestos in 2008. He married the love of his life Jennifer Roe in 1968. He is survived by his wife Jenny, children; Renee (Tom) Gledhill, Boise, Ron Oldham Jr., Parma, Rebecca (Jim) Duncan, Emmett, Robert (Jen) Oldham, Nampa. Twelve grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. His sisters, Mary DeMasters, Billie Handley, and Leona Thomas. Numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, and his brother John. We are so grateful for the memories and the stories from all those that loved him, reaffirming the great, and gracious heart of our dad. All those whom he influenced throughout their lives. Knowing he is whole in his Saviors' arms, yet knowing as much it still doesn't make it hurt any less. Dad truly led by example. It is evident in the messages we hear every day. Thank you so much for those stories! Heartfelt thanks to Auburn Crest Hospice, and Ashley Manor for the amazing care his last few days. A celebration of Ron's life will be held on October 9, 2021, at 1 pm, at Linder Road Church of Christ 1555 N Linder Rd Meridian ID. It will be socially distanced and streamed live on the church's YouTube channel.
