Ronald L. “Ronnie” Meadowcroft
July 6, 1972 - September 26, 2024
Ronald L. “Ronnie” Meadowcroft, age 52, of Delaware City, DE, passed away peacefully, surrounded by his loving family on Thursday, September 26, 2024.
Born in Elkton, MD on July 6, 1972, he was the son of the late Ronald R. and Diane Pauline (Michaud) Meadowcroft. Ronnie made his career as an iron worker at Atlas Welding and Fabrication.
In his spare time, Ronnie could often be found riding around on his Harley Davidson motorcycle, and looked forward to spending time at the family beach house. Ronnie enjoyed staying busy and was always working on something around his home. More than anything, he cherished his family, especially his daughter Amanda who was the apple of his eye. Ronnie also loved making memories with his grandchildren. He will always be remembered for his quirky, funny personality and his voice that could not be duplicated.
Ronnie is survived by his loving wife of 35 years, Tricia Yowell; children, Christopher Sizemore (Christina), Amanda Meadowcroft, and Veronica Meadowcroft (Jeff); grandchildren, Jada, Jacob, Jaxon, Jasper, Camryn, Carter, and Cooper; sisters, Yolanda Meadowcroft and Rana Johnson (Paul); nieces and nephew, Kaitlyn Cloherty (Sean), Paul-Paul Johnson, and Olivia Johnson; and his many “bonus” children and grandchildren.
A visitation for family and friends will be held from 10 am until 12 pm on Monday, October 7, 2024, at Delaware City Fire Company, 815 5th Street, Delaware City, DE, where a funeral service will begin at 12 pm. Interment will follow in Hickory Grove Cemetery, 428 Port Penn Road, Middletown, DE.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Ronnie’s memory to the Special Olympics of Delaware, c/o University of Delaware, 619 S. College Avenue, Newark, DE 19716 or online by clicking here.

I did not know Mr. Meadowcroft. Yet, he still somehow managed to leave a hole in my heart. I passed him shortly after his accident and he’d been in my prayers continuously. I was truly hurt when I learned of his passing. But, I believe I will see him one day, around God’s throne, and I look forward to meeting him. My condolences to the family. You are in my prayers.

Ronnie was one of a kind Fer sure, Ronnie never had a bad thing to say about anyone ever since I met him when we were kids and vice-versa. He had a heart of gold and was always like a dad to my son Nikalus and Tricia like a 2nd mom. You can’t find a person to this day more kind, real or loving than Ronnie. R.I.P. my friend, Without A Doubt We Will MissYou
