Ronald Earl Kuhlemeier was born on December 3, 1940 to parents Earl and Myrtle (Hall) Kuhlemeier in Rockford, Iowa. Ronald graduated from Clear Lake High School in 1959.

On March 22, 1960, he was united into marriage to Patricia Beamish in Sioux Falls, SD. Three daughters were born to this union. The couple later divorced.

Ron spent his whole life farming outside of Clear Lake with his longtime friend and assistant, Gary Eggerth, whom will continue the farming operation. He was an incredibly motivated, hard worker and he instilled that work ethic into his three daughters. He was always working, remodeling, or starting a new project. He enjoyed spending time with family and friends. Ron was a loving father, grandfather, brother, and friend and he will be greatly missed by the many that knew him.

Ronald is survived by his three daughters, Vicki (Bill) Berger, Theresa (Steve) Cork, and Sandy (Rick) Smith; grandchildren, Jess Shipman, Talli Berger, Cody (Kate) Cork, Nathan (Meghan) Cork, Caleb Cork, Ricky Smith, Johnathon Smith, Shanda Hutchinson, Patrick Smith, and Derrick Smith; great grandchildren, Jaxen, Kennedy, and Owen; and siblings, Charles (Kay) Kuhlemeier, Dayle (Janet) Kuhlemeier, Carol (Mel) Peterson, Marlys (Paul) Pitzenberger, and Betty Peralta.
