Obituary of Ron Barile

Ronald J. Barile, age 60, of Weehawken, NJ died Wednesday, January 19, 2022.  Ron was born July 20, 1961 in Bethpage, NY.

Once upon a time, not too very long ago, on July 20, 1961, a prince was born. Ronnie Barile was his name.  He was strong, handsome, proud, loving and helpful to others much more than a prince should be.  This prince grew to be a wonderful man.  Oh, so many respected and befriended Prince Ron. Many depended upon him, and learned life lessons from him.  That is what made Prince Ron happy.

As he grew, by the age of 23, he married, bought a castle, and received the gift of, not one, but two, healthy sons - the first princes given to their grandparents, James and Ryan!  Ron was so proud!  Ron’s parents were so proud!  Ron was loved and gave love back as he worked hard every day to support his family.  Every year, he grew more respected, and this made him happier.  

He kept working hard.  Actually, he was a warrior.

One day, when his sons were grown, he decided to build a new castle in a rare place called Narrowsburg, NY.  The house was his palace, and he built much of it all by himself.  Then, in that haven, he became a restaurateur.  There, he met his perfect princess Ivy! And had yet another son, Shane!

After much happinesses, fulfillments, music, guitars, vehicles, motorcycles, laughs and tears, despite his bounty of experiences, abundant, loyal and loving family and friends, he had to go away.

Oh, we wonder where?  

We know this is G-d’s will.

He is survived by his wife, Ivy, sons: Ryan Barile, James Barile, Shane Epstein-Petrullo, daughter-in-law Jill, granddaughter Harper, sisters: Liz Zazo and Denise Abad, brothers Tommy and Frank, in-laws: Frank, Mary, Manny, Michael, Steven, mother-in-law Joan, and the richness of a plentitude of devoted friends.
