Ronald K. Pittock
Ronald K. Pittock died Saturday, Nov. 1, 2025, after a long struggle with Lewy Body Dementia. He passed peacefully while surrounded by family. Ron was Warren General Hospital’s 1954 New Year’s baby. He graduated from both Sheffield High School and Edinboro University. Ron worked in the WCA Hospital lab for 37 years, acting as the chemistry supervisor for much of his tenure and teaching and mentoring med tech students. He also advocated for keeping the lab local at Warren General Hospital.
Ron was an active member of the Calvary Chapel congregation for over 40 years, where he cultivated a sincere faith in Christ and shared God’s love through teaching children’s church and Sunday School, playing his harmonica at nursing home services, participating in fun family-centered events, and acting as a mentor.
Ron was a caring man, who loved nature and outdoor activities like fishing, hunting, kayaking, biking, and golfing. He enjoyed playing and listening to music and reading a wide variety of literature. He was very serious about maintaining a healthy lifestyle and took great pleasure in exercising and working out. He was not so serious, however, that he would turn down a Skippy peanut butter sandwich or a good piece of chocolate. Ron had a loud, boisterous laugh and kept his good humor to the end, teasing his nurses and staff.
Ron was preceded in death by his parents Robert & Idris Pittock, his brother Bob Pittock, and his daughter Lauri (Bielawski) Legere. He is survived by his wife of 27 years, Rita Pittock, his daughter Sara Pittock, sons Brad (Anna) and Jeremy (Rebecca) Bielawski, and grandchildren Braydon (Joelle) & Trisaia (affianced to Daniel Newcomo) Legere, and Charlie & Benji Bielawski.
