Ronald Dan Mecham was called home to his Heavenly Father, Jan. 8, 2020.
Ron was the firstborn of seven children to Fred and Louise Mecham. Ron grew up on a dairy farm in Genola, Utah, where he learned hard work and dedication at a very young age. Ron was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where he served in various capacities, including serving in the North Central States Mission. Ron met his eternal sweetheart, Vickie Banks in Spanish Fork, Utah, and they were sealed together in the Provo Utah Temple. Together they had four children which he was very proud of and loved with all his heart. His love for hunting, horses and dogs was second to none. He had a kind heart; always making sure his family was safe and taken care of and was a friend to all whom he knew.
Ron is survived by his wife Vickie Mecham; children Angie (Reece) Davis, Hollie (Ron) Baum, Travis (Debbie) Mecham and Brett (Erin) Mecham; 14 grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren who had a special place in his heart. He is also survived by his brother Karl (Marcia) Mecham; and sisters Linda (Lonnie) Fullmer, Gaylynn (Kelly) Beckstrom. He was preceded in death by his parents, Fred and Louise Mecham; and brothers Kyle, Elden, and Fred.
