Ron Borkowski made quite an impression in high school when he planted a kiss on a pretty, blonde-haired girl who would later become his wife. “I just walked up and kissed her.” Didn’t she think that was forward of him? “l didn’t. It took her back. She was surprised. Yes.”
Four years later in 1962 after he graduated from the University of Notre Dame, Ron married a girl named Carol Weller. The couple would leave South Bend, Indiana and live out West and in the Mideast.
They had five children, and in 1992 moved to Lexington where Ron worked for Sears and later the Lexington Legends. In addition to raising the children, Carol enjoyed reading, walking, and becoming an excellent bowler.
