Ronald John Brozich, 89, of Beaver, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully on Thursday, February 26, 2026, surrounded by family and friends and under the wonderful care of Good Samaritan Hospice in Wexford, Pennsylvania.
Ron was born on September 21, 1936, in Beaver Falls, PA, the son of George “Tut” Brozich and Catherine (Capan) Brozich, who preceded him in death.
Ron attended Beaver Falls High School, where he thrived as a Western Pennsylvania football player and American Legion baseball pitcher. Following graduation, he worked at Babcock & Wilcox Steel for a year before deciding to enlist in the United States Army, where he served while stationed overseas in Germany. Throughout his life, he deeply appreciated the experience and fraternity he gained through his military service.
After completing his service to our country, Ron returned to school and earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. For over forty years, he owned and built a practice where he shared his passion for improving the health of his patients, many of whom became lifelong friends.
Ron was an active member of the faith community, belonging to Our Lady of the Valley Catholic Parish. For many years, he sang and played guitar in the choir and maintained a vibrant prayer life. One of his favorite sayings, when asked how he was doing, was “Getting better every day!” — a phrase that reflected both his optimism and his belief that each day brought him closer to the Lord whom he faithfully served. Ron shared a close bond with several friends from his prayer groups in both Erie and Beaver Counties.
After God, Ron loved his family above all else. He cherished family gatherings and celebrations, enjoyed watching his children grow up, appreciated camaraderie with friends on the golf course, and treasured fishing trips with his family. He took particular pride in playfully defending his title as the reigning Euchre champion within his family. Of special importance to him was his relationship with his older brother, Doc, with whom he shared a lifelong bond.
He married Barbara (Kramer) Brozich in 1970, and together they had four children: John Brozich (Thadina), Johanna Semonik (Paul Semonik), Tony Brozich, and Ben Brozich (Kendra). He is survived by Barbara; his children and grandchildren, Zachary Semonik, John Semonik, Abbie Brozich, Kaitlyn Brozich, and Sarah Brozich; his brother, Donald “Doc” Brozich (Mary); along with many cousins, nieces, nephews, and extended family members.
His family is forever grateful for the compassionate, committed, and talented physicians, nurses, and staff of the U.S. Veterans Health Administration, Good Samaritan Hospice, and Homemaker Home Health Aide Service of Beaver County.
Friends will be received on Tuesday, March 3, from 2–4 PM and 6–8 PM at GABAUER FUNERAL HOME & CREMATION SERVICES, INC., 1133 Penn Avenue, New Brighton, PA 15066. Departing prayers will be offered at the funeral home on Wednesday, March 4, at 9:15 AM, followed by a Mass of Christian Burial at 10 AM at St. Monica Church of St. Augustine Parish, 116 Thorndale Drive, Beaver Falls, PA 15010.

In accordance with his wishes, he will be cremated following the Mass, and inurnment will take place at the National Cemetery of the Alleghenies. Memorial contributions in Ron’s honor may be directed to Good Samaritan Hospice, 116 Browns Hill Road, Valencia, PA 16059.
