Corky Bardone

Ronald E. Bardone (Corky), age 70, of Exeter, California, went to be with the Lord on August 9, 2023, surrounded by his family full of love.  

He was born July 23, 1953, in Visalia, California, the son of Alfredo and Colleen Bardone. He was the youngest of the three boys, survived by his older brothers, Fred Bardone and Randy Bardone. 

On October 4, 1975, he married the love of his life and soulmate, his wife, Sherry Bardone in expression of their love in holy matrimony in Visalia, California. 

Throughout Corky’s professional career, he worked for A-C Electric Company, hired on December 4, 1971, in Visalia, California, working his way up to Production Manager, where he retired September 30, 2014, after 45 years with the company. 

Some of his most cherished moments were spent being with his family and friends, helping the neighborhood community, or just time spent on his tractor. 

He is survived by his wife Sherry Bardone, sons Scott Bardone, Jeremy Bardone, and daughter Andrea Bardone, as well as grandchildren. 

A celebration of life service will be held on September 2, 2023, 1:00 pm at Smith Family Chapel located at 505 East Pine Street in Exeter, California.
