RON'S REBEL RUNNERS: A FAMILY UNITED, EVERY STEP TOWARD A CURE FOR PANCREATIC CANCER​

PanCAN PurpleStride Fundraiser Event • Saturday, April 26, 2025 • Angel Stadium of Anaheim​

In Loving Memory of Ronald Neil Browning

Pancreatic cancer is an incredibly challenging disease to fight, both for patients and their family members, due to its aggressive nature and often late-stage diagnosis. This devastating disease took my dad, Ron, from us far too soon, but it couldn’t take away the love, compassion, and memories we built together. Ron fought with incredible strength and dignity, even when things were at their hardest. Through the darkest moments, he never lost his spirit or his love for his family. He showed us how to face life’s toughest battles with courage and grace.

The challenge is real and PanCan PurpleStride participants raise money to fund vital research, and provide treatment options and support for patients. At this year’s event, Team Ron’s Rebel Runners wants to help make an impact on the lives of pancreatic cancer patients – and we need your assistance to do it by making a grateful donation or joining our team to help get the word out.

  • Loving Memories of My Husband Ron - From Jody Browning

    From the moment I met him, I knew Ron was my soulmate. Ron was the  kind of man who made everyone feel special. There was something in his eyes, a warmth, a depth, that made me feel cherished. We shared  everything – laughter, dreams, challenges, and the kind of love that  only grows stronger over time. I was blessed to be his partner of 23 years, and even though my heart aches by his loss, I know that the love we shared is eternal.


    As a father, Ron was everything. Whether coaching a little league game or football, sharing a quiet conversation, or offering life advice, he gave it all with a love so fierce and genuine. To our four sons – Bryan, Aaron, Richard, and Adam – he was not only a father but a guiding light, teaching them how to be strong, compassionate, and responsible. He was always there for them. He instilled in them a sense of pride, of honor, and of family, and I know his legacy will live on through each of them. He was their rock, just as he was mine. And though we face life without him now, I know our boys will carry forward everything he taught them, and they will do so with the strength and integrity he modeled every single day.


    To my beloved Ron – thank you for being everything I could ever have asked for. You were my best friend, my heart, my soul. You were a gift to this world. I carry you with me every day, in every memory, and in every moment.

    We love you always,

    Jody and the boys
