Ronald Huther Hufft was born in 1956, and passed away at his home in Abita Springs, Louisiana on Friday, September 20, 2019 at the age of 63.
Ron was born in New Orleans and raised in Harahan, Louisiana where in his youth he was a respected athlete, once scouted by the Minnesota Twins. Rather than pursuing a career in baseball, he was called by his first love of music and was a lead guitarist for several bands traveling throughout the South. Most notably, the New Orleans rock band Roulette.
Later, Ron pursued other work interests with the fashion industry in New York, Dallas and New Orleans where he was a board member for Deep South Fashion Exhibitors. It was during this time that he met Julie, his beloved wife of 25 years. After the birth of their only child, Erin, the family settled in Abita Springs, La where they founded Colonial Inspection Services, LLC.
Ron was a Field Trainer and Continuing Education Provider for the Louisiana State Board of Home Inspectors and was highly respected by his many peers and students.
A true sportsman, he enjoyed fishing, hunting and boating in the marshes of Louisiana.
He is survived by his wife, Julie Langston Hufft, a daughter, Erin Nicole Hufft (Maxim Bankston) of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, his in-laws, and his wonderful Vieages cousins. He was also blessed with a long list of amazing friends that were more like family. They know who they are.
He was preceded in death by his father, Val Louis Hufft, mother, Audry Huther Hufft, and his brother, Val Huther Hufft.
Friends and family are invited to the Celebration of Ronnie’s life which will take Place on Sunday, October 13, 2019, at the Abita Springs Trailhead Park, with visitation beginning at 5:30 PM followed by the Service, and Second Line.
