Ronald L

Haidet

Ronald L. Haidet, age 76, passed away on September 28, 2026, at Canterbury Villa. Born on June 17, 1950, in Alliance, Ohio, Ronald will be fondly remembered for the life he shared with his family and the simple joys that brought him happiness. He worked as a pipemaker at A. R. Schopps Sons for over 30 years, taking great pride in his craftsmanship. Christmas was his favorite holiday, and he loved decorating for the season. Known for his dry sense of humor and ornery personality, he was always ready to share a joke. His life was filled with countless stories—like Aggie’s potato salad and St. Joseph’s lunch money ending up in the electric field—that will be kept alive through those who share them. A devoted Pink Floyd fan, his love for music brought energy and comfort to many moments in his life.

At the heart of everything, Ronald cherished those he loved. He is survived by his wife, Regena (Lewis) Haidet, with whom he shared 44 years of marriage since May 1982; his mother-in-law, Betty Wonner; his children, Troy and Amanda Haidet of Conway, South Carolina, Kieri and Thomas Carli of Canton, Ohio, and Ronnie Haidet and Tiff of Alliance, Ohio; and six grandchildren—Payton, London, Ireland, Charley, Jayden, and Trent—each carrying a part of his legacy. He is also survived by his sister-in-laws, Jamie (Ron) Huber of Minerva, and Diana Todd of Salem and Tonya (Todd) Heiberger of Rio Rancho, New Mexico.

He was preceded in death by his parents; his brother, Carl; his sister, Dolores; his fathers-in-law, Edward and David; his sister-in-laws, Sheri and Tammy; and brothers-in-law, David, Jerry, and Gene.

Family and friends are invited to visitation on October 7, 2026, from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at Dean’s Funeral Home, 256 W Ohio Ave, Sebring, Ohio 44672.

Ronald will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew him. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Aultman Hospice or the Akron Canton Regional Food Bank.
