Ronald J. Donnelly, 82, of Daugherty Township, passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, October 9, 2025, at Heritage Valley Health System, Beaver Campus.

Born on March 22, 1943, in Rochester, Pa, he was the son of the late John E. and Anna (Huber) Donnelly.

Ronald was a proud veteran of the United States Marine Corps and had worked at Babcock & Wilcox as a ladle liner, Beaver Valley Country Club, and Providence Health and Rehab Center.  In his free time, he enjoyed tinkering with his hot rod, playing dominoes with his family, and attending car cruises.

He is survived by his loving wife of nearly 60 years, Marilynne (Kauffman) Donnelly; his daughter and pride and joy, Chrysanne (Jeffrey) Corsetti; his siblings, John E. "Mickey" Donnelly, Arlene Hiltz, and William J. "Joe" Donnelly; many nieces, nephews, and friends who loved him very much.

In accordance with his wishes, Ronald will be cremated and a memorial service will be planned for a later date.

Memorial contributions in Ronald's honor may be made to the Beaver County Humane Society, 3394 Brodhead Road, Aliquippa, PA 15001, or the Daugherty Township Volunteer Fire Department, 4198 Marion Hill Road, New Brighton, PA 15066.
