Ron

Reisner

Obituary

If music be the food of love, play on.”- William Shakespeare. We are sad to announce the passing of Ronald Scott Reisner on June 29, 2021. He was born on June 26, 1965 and raised in Bloomfield, CT ( He resided in Charleston, South Carolina for the past several years). Ron graduated from Bloomfield High School in 1983. He attended the University of Hartford and graduated from Bradley University in Peoria, Illinois with degrees in business and music management in 1987. He was the son of Barbara (Lessinger) Reisner and the late Carl (of blessed memory)Resiner, both of Bloomfield. He leaves his cherished children Lily Reisner of Plainville, CT and Jared Reisner of Farmington, CT. He also leaves a sister and brother in law, Heidi & Rick York of Windsor, CT, a brother and sister in law, Marc & Lynn Reisner of Natick, MA; His nephews and nieces: Gregg & Becca York of Waltham, MA, Melissa & Chris Jahne of South Windsor, CT, Alexis and Jake Resiner both of Natick, MA. Ron’s life was perfused with music. He was a talented percussionist, known for his performances during his Bloomfield school career, Jazz Band, CTYWE, and his current band-drummer for Jared Pettey’s and The Headliners. He was a percussion and drums teacher at the New Old School of Music, LLC. Ron also was a former marketing executive/ voices at 95sx Hit Music Now. Ron’s career included (most recently) Manager at Lori’s Gifts, Former Director of Sales Operations at Cigna, Owner of Rosco’s Big Dog and Roscos’s II- well-known local hot dog restaurants. Ron’s leadership in music was well known. He was the Former Associate Director of Development at North Charleston Pops. He also was the President of the West Hartford Symphony for many years. He brought unique and creative programs through his leadership and talents. “We all shine on like the moon and the stars and the sun”- The Beatles. Ron shone through many of his volunteer activities. Having battled 40 years of Crohn’s Disease, he was an active participant in the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundations Annual Golf Tournament. He was also vital in the development of the mentorship program and the creation/management of a FIJI chapter at UCONN. Ron leaves us some more light hearted memories- a diehard Yankees and Raiders fan, the inventor of the legendary “junkyard dog” , award winning chili, outrageous Halloween displays, and driving throughout Bloomfield in the famous orange station wagon (aka “the Sam Reed Mobile”). Please feel free to contribute to the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation or the American Cancer Society to help find cures and treatments for these devastating diseases. The family would like to extend gratitude to the staff from Apple Rehab of Avon and Emily and her team from Beacon Hospice. Funeral Arrangements: Friday July 2, 2021 at 11:00 am.

Dear Barbara and Families,
We were extremely saddened to hear about Ronnie from Sharon and Dena.
Our memories of Ronnie go all the way back to 1979 when we relocated to Bloomfield. We were acquainted with him through his connections to our daughters, Beth Hillel Synagogue, Cliffmount Drive etc. All those times were wonderful. His love for music was always present as well as his broad smile.
We hope that only the wonderful thoughts of his life will help tide you over the sorrows that you and your family are going through.
We are sending you our deepest condolences.
Carol and Marty
