I started seeing Dr. Tishler in 1971 when I was just 6 years old. He remained my eye doctor for the next 40 years. He was a wonderful man and a great doctor. My sincerest condolences to his family and friends - my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Ron resided in Somers, CT for the last 45 years. He is survived by his wife Gail (Wexler), sons Dr. Darren and his wife Stephanie, Kevin Tishler and his wife Brooke, brother Dr. Steven Tishler and his wife Patty, Granddaughters Emma, Samantha, and Ava, and many nieces, nephews, and cousins. He was predeceased by his sister Myrna Keryc.
Ron loved the ocean, boating with his family, gardening, and tinkering with his classic cars. Most importantly, he loved celebrating the achievements of his children and granddaughters.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Henry Low Heart Center Fund at Hartford Hospital.
Funeral Services will be held on Monday, July 17, 2017 at 11:00 am in the Chapel of the Weinstein Mortuary, 640 Farmington Ave, Hartford, CT. Interment will follow in the Emanuel Synagogue Cemetery, Jordan Lane Ext., Wethersfield, CT.

My visit to Dr. Ron was always full of jokes and laughs...even under serious medical problems. I liked and respected him so very very much. He save my eye sight...and my visits back to him were like visiting a dear old friend! We had over 20 year relationship, he was kind, funny and a true gentleman....not to mention the BEST eye doc around! Prayers, from our family to your family for such a deep loss.

I was Dr. Ticshler's patient for many years before my insurance forced me to leave him. And he was always so pleasant. A pleasure to have for a doctor. I am so sorry for your terrible loss. May he Rest In Peace. God bless you all.
