Jackson AL Obituaries and Death Notices
Monday, June 26, 2017PGA West in La Quinta, California and served as Treasurer of the Homeowner’s Association there. Ron is remembered for his devotion to family, even when personally recruited twice by Michael Jackson to head a proposed Olympic track and field training camp for black athletes. He worried that the young star was a “flash in the pan” unable to reliably match his teaching salary. He never regretted turning down the offer, though his family was in disbelief. His many students regard “Mr. Tebbs” as their most memorable teacher who made learning difficult material interesting. He once quipped, “I teach until their eyes get glassy, then I go into my funny stories”. Ron earned his Bachelor’s degree and Master’s in Education from Whittier College and a Master’s in Marine Biology from Humboldt State University in Trinidad, California. Ron’s life will be celebrated on Thursday, June 29, 2017 at 10 a.m. at the Luginbuel Funeral Chapel, 332 North Scraper, Vinita, Oklahoma.
