Ronald "Ron" Riek

Ronald “Ron” Riek, age 63, of Woodville, Wisconsin, passed away after a tragic accident on Tuesday, October 13, 2026.

Ron was born August 1, 1963, to Lloyd and Betty (Johnson) Riek in Baldwin WI. He attended school at Baldwin-Woodville and graduated with the Class of 1982.

He has been an entrepreneur from a very young age from lawn services, shoveling/plowing snow, cutting wood, farming, to the very successful logistics and warehousing business he actively ran. His passion for flying was above all the hobby he loved most. Ron’s infectious smile would light up any room and his amazing laugh made anyone smile. When he wasn’t working Ron spent his time traveling and fishing with the love of his life, Kim. 

Ron will be sadly missed by his life partner Kimberly, mother Betty, children Suzanne Riek, Bonnie (Jon) Amundson, Rebecca Riek (Jordan Klumby), Reuben (Kylee) Riek along with three bonus sons Dylan Kuester, Josh (Lexi) Kuester, Ben (Drew) Kuester and three bonus grandchildren Bentley Klumby, Jax and Presley Kuester and finally fur babies Maggie, Chloe and Thor. And many other relatives and friends.
