  Ronald William Diedrick, "Elmer", age 59, died on Sunday, October 4, 2015. Ron was born on October 17, 1955, the fifth child born to Elmer and Martha (Gloudemans) Diedrick in Appleton, Wisconsin. He attended St. Joseph Grade School, Wilson Junior High School, and Appleton West High School. He worked at the Holiday House Liquor Store when he was a student and for many years as an adult was a partner in the Warehouse Outlet Liquor Store in Appleton. He spent the majority of his adult life in the liquor store business. Ron was a generous person always helping out those in need. He spent many years "caring and enjoying" his friends Sylvia and Sadie (deceased) Hopfensperger. Sylvia will miss him and his teasing. Ron enjoyed fishing, and country rides with friends - maybe an occasional stop for "shake of the day". He also made sure there was sheepshead change on his Dad's gravestone. He is survived by his seven siblings: Char (Fred) Steenis, Jan Diedrick, JoAnne (Tom) Schuler, Richard (Yang) Diedrick, Julie (Gary) Van Camp, Terri Diedrick, and Larry Diedrick. He is also survived by his nieces and nephews: Paul (friend - Kevin) Steenis, Laurie Steenis, Mark Steenis, Rebecca Hooyman, Ryan (Sarah Rose) Van Camp, Cory (Casey) Van Camp, Alissa (Chris) Effa, & Paige Diedrick and many grandnieces and grandnephews. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents Henry & Hattie (Vosters) Gloudemans and stepgrandmother (who was the only grandmother he ever knew) Elizabeth (Schumacher) Gloudemans and paternal grandparents, Peter & Mary (Nabbefeld) Diedrick as well as his godparents Bill & Florence Gloudemans. A memorial service for Ron will take place at 7:30 pm, Thursday, October 8, 2015 at the Brettschneider-Trettin-Nickel Funeral Chapel with Deacon Michael Madden, MD officiating. Friends may visit the family at the funeral home from 5:30 pm until the time of the service. The family would like to thank the caring staffs at Appleton Medical Center both in the ER and on the floors, Gold Cross Ambulance personnel, and the many who cared for him both in the Fox Valley and at the UW Madison Clinics. He was a patient so many times in the last few years as he was waiting for a kidney/liver transplant. Also many thanks to the numerous doctors, medical personnel, home health agencies, rehab facilities - too many to name - who provided their caring help to Ron in the last years of his life. We, Ron's family, appreciated the special caring provided to us by Palliative Care and Hospice during the last days.
