1947-2024

Ron Mallon of Brooklyn Park passed away on Friday, April 5, 2024 from cardiac arrest. Ron was born on January 8, 1947 in Albert Lea, the son of Roy and Clara (Lyngaas) Mallon. He graduated from Albert Lea High School in 1965. He went to Technical School after that and started his career in drafting, which later turned into computer aided drafting. He married the love of his life, Sue Banashak, on November 22, 1969 in Waseca, MN. They enjoyed 53 wonderful years together before Sue passed away. He enjoyed spending time with his wife and family. He also loved working on cars, and he loved going to car shows in the summer. He was such a kind and unselfish man, with a witty sense of humor. He will be missed by so many.

He is survived by his daughter Amy Mallon (Chris Somers), son Chris Mallon (Monica & Melinda), granddaughter Caitlin (Rob Swanson) and his beloved great-granddaughter Gabrielle Susan (Miss Gabi Sue), sister Donna (Grant) Shold, sister Marilyn (Paul) Nechanicky, brother Duane (Roxy) Mallon, brother-in-law Kevin (Pam) Banashak, sister-in-law Elizabeth Banashak, as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

He was preceded in death by his loving wife, Sue (this year would have been their 55th wedding anniversary), his parents Roy and Clara Mallon, parents-in-law Alex and Elvina Banashak, brother-in-law Mike Banashak, grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins and friends.

A private memorial will be held at a later date.
