Honoring the Life and Memory of Ronald Cromartie (Ron Pharaoh)

Dear friends, family, and community, we are devastated to share the passing of Ron who brought so much warmth, joy, and love into our lives. He courageously fought to the very end. We believe that he had checked off every box on his to-do in life list. He was a friend, a husband, a wrestler, a filmmaker , entrepreneur, a chef, a food truck owner and a mentor.

Ron was devoted to every cause he believed in. Because of his kindness, he has left an unforgettable mark on everyone who knew him. Whether he was wrestling, cooking, guiding his friends with disabilities toward success, singing karaoke or working the door as a bouncer, he had a talent for keeping people entertained—and keeping them in line. He lit up every room and showed up with a generous heart.

With love,

Ron's loved ones
