SOUTH BEND - Ronald F. Dudeck, 80 years old, passed away at 3:34 p.m. on Saturday, December 23, 2017 at Southfield Village, South Bend while surrounded by his family. Ron was born on April 25, 1937 in South Bend to the late Albert and Margaret (Zellers) Dudeck. He has remained a lifelong resident of South Bend. Ron worked in sales for Powell Tool Supply and South Bend Lathe. He was also the former owner/operator of Little Dutch Cleaners in South Bend, from which he retired after 25 years.
Ron proudly served his country with the Indiana National Guard and was a 25-year volunteer firefighter for Warren Township.

He enjoyed being a member of the Amarillo Star Line Dancing Club.
Ron adored his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren and was always smiling with loving pride when around them. When his children were young, he taught all of them how to swim and water ski at the family cabin on Shave Head Lake. They will cherish those memories along with their summer trips to Florida and Walt Disney World. He enjoyed watching his daughters and granddaughters compete with their horses in 4-H, where he had many Greene Township Horse & Pony friends.

Along with his parents, Ron was preceded in death by his daughter, Shelley Dudeck; great-granddaughter, Makenzie Garrett; and two brothers, Albert and Robert “Skip” Dudeck.
