So sorry for ur lost
I had the privilege of having him as my kids pe teacher then as a coworker. He was amazing in both roles and was loved by many. So sorry to hear this...
Mr Wagner, I was lucky enough to have him all through elementary and some high school. "LOAN!" I can hear his voice now. Can't say how sad I am to hear of his passing. Heart of good, that one. He will be missed.
Ron (or as I knew him Mr. Wagner) was by far one of the best P.e. teachers! Though he looked like he was going to be hard on us he was absolutely the kindest of souls!!
I remember Ron like it was yesterday. I walked into pe thinking man he's going to be hard on us or just kinda harsh. Turned out to be the complete opposite. He was so nice and caring and loved to just talk to you! I was late to class once and he looked over saw who it was and kinda rolled his eyes Ashley how come your late? I tried everything to come up with a good excuse I had nothing. I just looked at him and said honestly mr Wagner I just am. I thought he'd be upset but he laughed and said next time come up with something funnier. I knew I had a good teacher. You'll be missed Ron thanks for helping and guiding me Thur school.

I am so sorry for your loss he was such a kind sweet man I always joked with him when he came into Hy-Vee and helped him take his groceries to his truck I'm sure going to miss you best friend
Coach Wagner was the best. One of my favorite memories was during an afternoon Two-a-Day, our head coach was all over the O-Line that day and Ron knew we needed some encouragement. He came over to us and asked if we'd been to the State Fair yet. When none of us had, he throws out, "You gotta see the big boar this year. Harley Hoss. Balls bigger than your head!" We all lost it, and after a couple minutes of laughing, we were right back into running drills and busting our tails, but it was that balance of asking a lot of us, and knowing when we needed to remember having fun was part of the game that made Ron one of the best coaches I ever had. God bless you Coach!
