Ronald Allen Eichler

Ronald Allen Eichler, of Missouri City, Texas, passed unexpectedly on May 16, 2024 at the age of 69. The family is deeply saddened and shocked by his sudden passing. Ronnie was born on July 30, 1954, he graduated from Dulles High School in Sugar Land, and lived in Missouri City for most of his life in the home that he custom built in the early 80’s. As a young man, he worked alongside his father at Houston Lighting & Power as a lineman. Ronnie retired from the light company as a trouble shooter with over 40 years of service at the age of 60. Everyone knew Ronnie for his willingness to step in and help, he enjoyed helping his neighbors and niece with their projects. He always seemed to have the right tool in one of his garages for your project that was neatly organized by one of his many AMC muscle cars. At the time of Ronnie’s passing, he had five muscle cars whose rumbling motors could be heard as he pulled them out of the garage early on beautiful sunny morning. Oh, the stories his 1970 AMC Rebel, the Machine, could tell as he drove it around town as a young wild man racing anyone who thought they could out drive him, then cruising around Quail Valley with kids in the back seat, and in his retirement years heading to Antique Classic car shows with his wife in the front seat with him. Ronnie enjoyed doing wood work and leather projects when he was younger and often could recreate an item from a clipping of a picture from a magazine that his mother clipped for him. In his later years he began wood working again and found joy in creating items that families and friends will now forever treasure. Survived by his wife Susan Eichler and sons Ronnie Allen Eichler (spouse Raphael), Ray Albert Eichler and Philip Andrew Moore. Brother Albert Daniel Eichler Jr, his daughter Melissa Ann Hinch, and grandsons Shawn Matthew Hinch and Brett Alexander Hinch. He is also survived by many more loving family members and an abundance of good friends. Ronnie was preceded in death by his parents Albert Daniel Eichler Sr and Willma Ruth Eichler. A limb has fallen from the family tree. I hear a voice that whispers, “Grieve not for me Remember the best times, the laughter, the songs The good I lived while I was strong Continue my heritage, I’m counting on you. Keep on smiling, the sun will shine through. My mind is at ease, my soul is at rest Remembering all… how I was truly blessed Continue traditions, no matter how small Go on with your lives, don’t stare at the wall. I miss you all dearly so keep up your chin Until that fine day we’re together again.”
