Ronald Joseph Schommer
August 24, 1947 - November 11, 2014
 
 
Ron is survived by his brother, John Schommer of Ventura, CA; son and daughter-in-law, Curt and Melissa Schommer of Turlock, CA; son and daughter-in-law, Kyle and Violeta Schommer of Ventura, CA; and granddaughter, Kai Schommer. He is preceded in death by his wife, Margaret Schommer.

Ron was born in San Mateo, CA on August 24, 1947 to Henry and Rachel Schommer. Raided in Fresno, CA, he attended San Joaquin Memorial High School and excelled in track and field and football. Football brought Ron to California Lutheran College in Thousand Oaks, CA where he found his purpose and met Margaret. Ron and Margaret settled in Ventura and raised their sons near the beach in Pierpont.

The pictures below are from the years when Ron played halfback for Coach Shoup Kingsmen and led a parade of touchdowns in ‘66 with scoring gallops of 3 and 15 yards in a 48-6 win against a hapless Cal Tech (in the middle picture / Cal Lu’s 12th straight win over a two-year period), and the right hand picture was during a critical game against Occidental in 1968 when Ron Schommer and Joe Stouch shredded the competition while Bob Bonner (62) in ’66 and Curt Amundson (66) in ‘68 and other lineman cleared the way.
