GARDNER – Ronald R. LeBlanc, 83, of 390 Temple Street, died Monday, June 24, 2019 in Heywood Hospital, Gardner after a brief illness.

Ron was born in Gardner on January 22, 1936, son of the late Richard and Elise (LeBlanc) LeBlanc.  He was a 1954 graduate of Gardner High School and was a graduate of Fitchburg State College.  He proudly served his country as a member of the United States Army during the Korean War.
