Ron was born on May 3, 1941 to the parents Lewis and Elizabeth (Belland) Burg. He grew up in Brainerd, MN and later studied to be a Radiology Technician in St. Cloud, MN. He met the love of his life, Nancy and they were married on October 19, 1963. Ron worked in radiology for quite some time before branching out into photography. Many in the community will recognize his business of over 45 years known as "Ron Burg Photography". He was hard working and very dedicated to putting his best into his business and grateful for the many people he was able to meet over the years. He always made time for people and enjoyed conversation.
