Ron Jernigan
December 26, 1955 - September 3, 2024

Houston Magicians and friends,

It is with heavy sadness that we have lost one of our long-time members. Ron Jernigan passed away on September 3 after attending the Magic Texas conference in Arlington, TX. Ron had been a valued member of the Houston magic clubs at least since 1993. He was a current club officer and was a Past President of the HAOM. Additional information will be provided as soon as more information is available. Condolences to Millie and Ron's two sons.

Ronald was born on December 26, 1955, in Woodville, Texas to mother Catherine Jernigan and father R.A. Jernigan. He graduated from Kirby High School in Woodville and later earned a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from Texas A&M University in 1978. He enjoyed a successful career with Houston Lighting and Power, Reliant Energy, and NRG Energy. As a consulting engineer, he held the respected Professional Engineer (PE) designation.

He had a deep passion for magic; he was a dedicated member of the Houston Association of Magicians, where he was a Past-President and Sergeant-at-Arms, as well as a member of the Society of American Magicians. He generously spent his time performing for different organizations and groups throughout his life, including Texas Children's Hospital. Ronald also enjoyed dancing, playing in a bluegrass band, and exploring new places through travel.

Ronald was a kind, generous, and thoughtful man who touched the lives of many. He was always eager to help; often put the needs of others above his own. His ability to solve problems was admired by many.

A Memorial Visitation for Ronald was held Friday, September 27, 2024 from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM followed by a Celebration of Life from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Brookside Funeral Home - Champions, 3410 Cypress Creek Parkway, Houston, TX 77068 in the Paloma Chapel. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Houston Association of Magicians (HAOM) in his memory.
