Ronald Squiller
Ronald Squiller, 83, of Washington, passed away peacefully on March 19, 2022.
Ron was born in McKees Rocks, on April 15, 1938, the son of the late Samuel and Mary Squiller.
He is survived by his caring and loving wife of 37 years, Lorraine Squiller; sister-in-law Joan Squiller (wife of Edward Squiller), two nephews and one niece and their families. He is preceded by his three brothers, William, Edward, and Robert Squiller.
Ron attended Southern Illinois University until he was called by his father to help with the family business. Ron and his brothers were owners of Thepitt Manufacturing Co., which manufactured electrical outlet boxes and fittings in Carnegie. The pitt was a family affair that employed aunts, uncles, nephews, nieces, and cousins. After the brothers sold Thepitt, they started Pitt Industries, an industrial real estate company serving the Pittsburgh area.
Ron loved boating and sailing with his brother William on Deep Creek Lake in Maryland where they raced Flying Scotts. He also enjoyed annual family birthday picnics at Youghiogheny Lake.
He had a loving heart for dogs and cats in distress.
Ron and his wife Lorraine took Ballroom Room dancing lessons and danced at local Ballroom Dancing events.
When not walking on local trails, working on the computer, or listening to music, he and Lorraine loved to travel. Hilton Head, Erie, and Las Vegas were frequent and favorite destinations.
