Ronald Madison

Ronald “Ronnie” Allen Madison, 67, of Hillsboro, lost his courageous battle with cancer Sunday, August 4, 2024, at his home.

Born August 4, 1957, in Marlinton, he was a son of the late Lewis and Oleta Madison.

Ronnie enjoyed playing softball and bowling in his younger years. He was an avid hunter and fisherman, and enjoyed camping and spending time with his family.

He was a loving husband, father and grandfather. He loved all his family and friends, but most of all his grandchildren. He enjoyed being able to attend as many of their activities as possible – from tennis to school plays, band concerts, basketball, track meets as well as helping them with their 4-H project animals. One of his biggest goals in life was to see all his grandchildren graduate high school, which he was able to accomplish. He was extremely proud of them and all of their accomplishments.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by a brother, Johnnie Madison.

He is survived by his wife of 49 years, Frances Madison; daughters, Toni Luke, and partner, Ken Sapp, Jr., of Weston, and Tonja Armstrong, and husband, David; four grandchildren, Kelsey Luke, Justin Luke, Ethan Armstrong and Jessica Armstrong; brother, Wayne Madison, and wife, Diana, of Hillsboro; sister, Connie Williamson, of Lewisburg; many nieces and nephews and other family members and friends whom he deeply cared for.

Funeral service was held Wednesday, August 7, 2024, at Wesley Chapel Church in Hillsboro with Pastors Tim and Pete Scott officiating.

Burial was in Oak Grove Cemetery.
