Rondell “Ron” Pace, 86, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his family on May 2, 2026.

Ron was born on February 7, 1940, in Glasgow, Kentucky, to Flavie and Alice Pace. While living in Louisville, Kentucky, he met the love of his life, Kathy Pace, and they were married in October 1965.

After the birth of their children, Shannon and David, the family moved to Rochester, Minnesota, where Ron worked in auto finance. In 1975, Ron followed a career opportunity to Colorado, where he eventually built his own company and worked in the automotive sales industry for more than 40 years.

Ron was known for his love of the outdoors. He was an avid hunter and fisherman, as well as a talented artist and painter. He will be remembered for his kindness, humor, and the many stories he shared with family and friends.

Ron is survived by his beloved wife, Kathy; his daughter, Shannon; his son, David; his grandson, Paul; and his sister, Tonya.

His legacy will live on in the hearts and memories of all who knew and loved him.
