April 8, 1955 – January 30, 2025

Ronald Wayne High, 69, of Hurricane, WV, passed away peacefully on January 30, 2025. A devoted member of First United Baptist Church of Hurricane, Ron had a deep and abiding passion for his faith. Despite life’s hardships, Ron always had a good joke ready and a smile to share. He found joy in basketball, laughter, and making sure his nieces and nephews were happy, healthy, and just ornery enough.

Ron is survived by his loving brother, Stephen High of Hurricane, and his sister, Sandy Bragg (Darrell) of Granville, OH. He will be deeply missed by his niece and nephews: Andrea Silhanek of Johnstown, OH; Matthew High of Hurricane; Todd High of Frazeysburg, OH; and Adam Bragg of Sarasota, FL.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Marion and JoAnn High.

Ron’s kindness, laughter, and faith will be cherished forever by those who knew and loved him.

Ron was a true “Hurricane boy” through and through, proud to call this town home for his entire life. His family is deeply grateful to the community for the kindness, care, and love shown to him over the years. They would also like to extend their heartfelt appreciation to his dedicated nursing staff, whose compassion, patience, and unwavering support meant the world to Ron and those who loved him.
