Camp Courageous is saddened by the passing of Ron Valenta, 64, of Cedar Rapids, Iowa.  Ron was one of those individuals who worked hard but had fun doing it.  Ron had a story for everyone and loved making people laugh.  Ron learned the plumbing business from his dad, Frank.  Together with his brothers and nephew, Zak, they owned and operated Valenta Plumbing & Heating.  So many of his customers have commented on what a good and caring person Ron was…how he always went the extra mile for them.  Ron had a wonderful patience with everyone, particularly his customers, who he personally cared about.  Camp’s sympathy goes out to Ron’s wife, Renee, along with their boys, family, and friends.  Camp Courageous is humbled that Ron’s Family has desired his memorials go to Camp Courageous.
