Ronald Alan Johnston

Ronald Alan Johnston “Top Hat”, 69 of Rock Springs, Wyoming passed away on July 7th, 2026. He fought a long battle with several health issues over the last 5 years. He was born on August 5th, 1956, in Syracuse, New York to Doyle Hinton Johnston and Annie Fern Terry- Johnston. His favorite hobby was riding his motorcycle. He rode with the Unknown Saints “Boneyard” from 2019-2021, until his retirement due to health conditions. His trips to Sturgis every year were his ultimate favorite pastime. If he wasn’t at home, you would find him cruising around town in rain, snow or sunshine and his top hat stayed on through it all. He enjoyed the outdoors and camping with his family meant the world to him. He made a lot of great memories with us all on those trips. He was a Chicago Bears fan, so on football Sundays he was the man in charge of the wings and homemade blue cheese. He loved to cook and share his recipes. We will forever cherish our kitchen time and all the memories made. He drove truck for a living locally and over the road making many friends along the way and enjoying his mini vacations traveling. His best times over the road were with his forever love Alice when they were owner operators.

He is survived by his 3 children: Ronnie Johnston (Melissa), Kira Johnston and Wesley Johnston. 5 Stepchildren that he loved like his own Jennifer Salazar (Andrew), Chevy Eaton (Jesse), Denver Eaton, Nancy Hofstad (Tyler) and April Eaton, 28 grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren. Siblings: Phyllis Johnston-Buda, Robin Johnston-Propheter and Jacqueline Johnston. Several Nephews and Nieces. 1st Ex-Wife Feline Osterkorn-Johnston.
