Ronald Lowell Kincaid

Dearly loved Ron, age 84, most recently of Coon Rapids, MN, passed away November 30, 2020. Preceded in death by his parents, George Gallagher and Florence Mildred (nee Johnston) Kincaid; and two sisters, Marjorie (Harry) Gensler and LaRue (Keith) Oyer. Born in Connellsville, PA on August 9, 1936, Ron grew up in the Regent Square area of Pittsburgh. He graduated from Edgewood High School in 1955 and later attended Monmouth College (IL) and the University of Pittsburgh. A 32-year employee of Westinghouse Electric Corp., East Pittsburgh, PA, Ron worked in manufacturing production, computer operations, and quality control of switchgear products. He was also active in the Foremans' Association. In 1989, he took a job with Electric Machinery Co. in Minneapolis as a Customer Representative. His family followed him the next year. Later he worked for QC Inspection Services, Lumonics Inc. and Covidien in quality control inspection before retiring in 2009. Most recently, Ron was an active member at Faith Lutheran Church of Coon Rapids. He was also really involved in his Scottish heritage, including serving as an officer/board member for The Minnesota Coalition of Scottish Clans and The St. Andrews Society. He served as Commissioner of Clan Kincaid in Pennsylvania and Minnesota for many years as well as fulfilled his dream of visiting Scotland with his wife Alma. Ron was an avid hobbyist with a life-long interest in old cars. Together with his son, Brad, they worked on restoring a 1966 Dodge Charger. In later years he picked up wood-carving and served as President of the Minnesota Metro Wood Carvers Club. Ron enjoyed traveling the country and took his family camping throughout the United States. He was always there to encourage his wife in her artistic pursuits as well as spend quality time with each of his children. He was well-known because of his friendliness and easy ability to get into conversation with anyone. Always remembering his roots, he was a die-hard Steelers' fan to the end!
